scotlandspeople has the marriage for Agnes in 1858 and the entry will show the parents of both Agnes & John. It is a pay to view site.

Agnes Turner, maiden name MacFarlane appears on the 1861 census. If she remained in Scotland her death will be on Scotlandspeople. Female deaths can be searched using both surnames. Scottish death registrations name both parents including the mother's maiden surname if the informant knew the details.

Remember to select surname variants when searching for MacFarlane as this will include McFarlane.

Root gatherer.
All that you have given above is correct for Agnes, she was born in Arrochar.

What a strange name for a male.

thank you for your help.

rootgatherer Report 8 Oct 2014 13:23

Apologies Linda. I misread the details and thought that it was Duncan's wife whose maiden surname was MacFarlane not his Daughter in law. So the 1841 census may not be relevant.


EDIT

Getting confused here (nothing new on my part lol). Where does this fit in? Is this John related to your Duncan?

Rootgatherer.

I shall dismiss the 1841 census and the 1858 marriage too!

So both boys and father Duncan, Dugald with family moved to glasgow.

yes Duncan Turner snr was a Shepherd and died 1894 Glasgow.

I must apply for his death certificate to see what information it may give!

Thank you for your help.
