Biography

This biography was auto-generated by a GEDCOM import.[1]

Based on information on her death certificate, Mary was born about 1785. She died on 17 October 1857. Her married name is Wallace but her husband's name is not given.[2]

There is a record of a birth in the Old Parish Records for Carmunnock for Mary Watt daughter of Thomas Watt born or baptised on 13 November 1785.[3] However, on the 1851 census Mary is said to be from the neighbouring parish of (East) Kilbride.

There are two marriages recorded for Mary Watt with a spouse whose surname is Wallace, one to Robert Wallace in East Kilbride in 1834 and one to William Wallace in Glasgow 1848. According to the census returns for 1851, the Mary Watt who is married to Robert Wallace is exactly the right age.[4]

Mary and Robert are in Kirkton Village, East Kilbride on the 1851 Census.[5]
