Research

After much additional research I have come to the conclusion that the following information is incorrect in respect of her parents and census entries up to 1866 when she married Alexander Rule. I am certain that Alexander was her husband. The 1871 Scotland census has Alex, Eliz and Grace all with correct ages living in Dalziel Born Elizabeth was born in 1846 in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland ^{[7] [8]}
