Unfortunately, the attached daughter is not sourced and I have found no reference to her in any of the sources on this profile. I have added this profile to our to our To Review list and hopefully we can solve the mystery soon.
She has the right father attached, and if you click on him, you will see the correct mother.
Her mother was Maria (Unknown) Fraser (abt.1266-)
