      On ScotlandsPeople site - Jan 11, 2012 - found a birth for Margaret Kennedy Wilkie - 1920-652/01-0316 in Old Monkland, Lanarkshire - but no image but a strong probability this is the dtr of Jane Bremner Kennedy & Charles S. A. Wilkie

      ** I feel strongly this is Charles Stewart Alexander Wilkie's 1st Wife - - as she was enumerated with her Parents James & Hannah Kennedy in 1930 at Pawtucket, Rhode Island- occupation Operator of Comptometer - she had 2 chn with her Margaret Wilkie & James K. Wilkie. Further research on Scotlands People has confirmed birth registrations for these 2 names - 1920 & 1921 at Old Monkland, Lanarkshire - however no image for me to verify the Parents names - but does fit with the data from 1930 USA census
      Both the Social Security Death Index & Florida Death Index - the dates and names fit with the marriage certificate of 1917. hw Jan 11, 2012
