      Where Registered: 1874, May 12, at Kinross, Robert Burns Begg, Registrar


      Info provided to me by Linda, in Hamilton, Ontario. I confirmed a Marg.
      Dewar Wilkie on IGI, birth 11 May 1840, Chr. 9 Aug 1840 at Kinghorn, Fife, Scotland. Parents are named as Charles Wilkie and Agnes Paton; Source Call # 1040168; Batch C114397


      ** As there isn't a 'Dewar' name on either the marriage or death certificate of Margaret Wilkie, dtr of Charles Wilkie and Agnes Paton, June, 2004, after further research, have found an illeg. dtr born to Marg. Wilkie, grandfather Charles Wilkie, so believe all above is accurate. Why the name 'Dewar' has been omitted from marriage and death cert. is unknown as yet.
