You would need to find a baptism record from church records, same with a marriage if pre 1837. Who do you think she married and when?
I think we'd need a little more info to try to helpWas Cairney/ Keaney her married name or her birth name? If it was her birth name what name was used for her death registration in 1873, Durham?Her death record would likely show the name of her husband.BooHi Cairney was her maiden name, her married name was Marrin (also spelt as Marren, Morran, Marin and Marriner). Her Husband predeceased her, and was named Richard. I haven't been able to find a marriage record for them. Ive checked Irish and Scottish records and also looked for irregular marriages, without success
