I'm currently re-tracing my 4x great grandmother Ann Bowman after realising after a couple of years that my tree was wrong.
Her daughter Agnes Mitchell is my 3x great grandmother and went on to marry Alexander Ormond in Forfar. Her father is listed as John Mitchell, Crofter, and mother Ann Bowman.
I cannot find Ann's marriage to John Mitchell, but I have been able to find a later 1867 marriage to James Petrie which has Alexander Ormond (her grandson) as a witness. To make matters somewhat more complicated, I find that Ann died in Rutherglen in 1894, witnessed by Elizabeth Ogilvie, daughter in law. Elizabeth Ogilvie was married to Andrew Ogilvie, who died in 1929, with mother listed as Ann Bowman and father Andrew Ogilvie.
However, I can't find a birth for Andrew or a marriage between Ann and an Andrew Ogilvie.
Lastly, on her death certificate, her parents are listed as James Bowman and Elisabeth Joe. I can only find one sibling of Ann, Charles Bowman born 1820 in Tannadice, if anyone can help find other siblings or a baptism for Elisabeth Joe that would be great. I have found a likely birth for James Bowman in 1787 also in Tannadice.
