Elizabeth Johnstone 1888.

[CaroleW]

Did you check SP or the 1891 census for the other birth?  That Elizabeth mmn Bogle died 1888

[Forfarian]

So the Elizabeth that died would’ve been Elizabeth Johnstone then?

The death certificate will tell you.

But it does look probable.

Elizabeth J was aged 3 in the 1891 census. This means that (assuming that her age is accurate) she had not yet had her 4th birthday by the date of the 1891 census, which was on 5 April 1891. Therefore she was born between 6 April 1887 and 5 April 1888. Not necessarily in 1888.

(The original census never gives a year of birth. Assuming accuracy, it tells you the age of the person on their last birthday before the day of the census; and subtracting the age in a census from the year of the census gives a wrong year 3 times out of 4.)

There is a birth in Hawick in 1887 of an Elizabeth Johnstone, mother's maiden name not included in the index. That omission is often an indicator of an illegitimate birth. You need to get a copy of that certificate and see what it tells you.

Also a copy of the death certificate of Elizabeth Jardine mmn Johnstone in 1891 to see what that tells you.

Elizabeth Jardine mmn Bogle is a red herring. She was most likely one of 7 children of John Johnstone and Mary Bogle, married in Wilton in 1886.

This is all so confusing🫣

[Ladyhawk]

Elizabeth Johnstone is under her mother’s maiden name. Her mother married after Elizabeth was born 1890 to Martin Jardine.

Rather strange that the 1901 for Martin Jardine has a 1yr old Elizabeth.  Also shows Elizabeth Jardine was b England 1862 but 1881 & 1891 shows England 1869

1891 also has a 5mth old Joseph Jardine who is with Martin & Elizabeth in 1901

All you have to do is download that 1891 death cert to remove your confusion.  By 1891 Elizabeth was married so it would not be unusual for Elizabeth jnr death to be registered as Jardine

Although they married 1890 - Elizabeth is under Johnstone in 1891 as she is with her parents
