Member Since: March 2004 Posts: 151 Send Message	Thank you very very much to everyone who's helped so far :-D I can't get my head around some of the dates though. The death record for Catherine McKelvie (Docherty) looks right. This would mean she was born around 1829 But on the 1871 census (which also looks promising), shows that Catherine McKelvie was born around 1820. Could the dates really be 9 years out? :-S
