I have downloaded her DC, she died as Margaret Brown on 19/10/1889, cert says she was 66 yrs old, I have her on the 1851 census aged 36 as Margaret Kelly, she married later that year and I have her on all census till she dies, but I cant find her on 1841 or her OPR, she says she was born in Dailly in Ayrshire, on DC it says her father was John Kelly, mother Hannah Lyon, I cant find their marriage either, any help with this would be gratefully accepted. |

Thank you so much for this info Jacqueline, I tried family search but couldnt find anything, i find that site quite difficult to use now, it seamed so much easier years ago. |

Hannah was a widow in 1851 so looks like her husband died before Statutory registration began. |

Thank you so much for this info Jacqueline, I checked SP for death for Hannah but there is nothing coming up, she is not on 1861 census with the Wishart family, maybe she moved to live with another son or daughter. |
