Hi

I am new to this list and was wondering if anyone might be able to help me find
some information on my gg grandmother.

Jane DAVIDSON was born about 1803 (based on her age on her death certificate) in
Dromore to Thomas DAVIDSON and Elizabeth (?). At some stage the family moved to
Scotland, and I have found Thomas, Elizabeth and Jane in the 1841 census of
Wigtownshire, SCT. She married in 1843 and died in 1891 in Wigtownshire. On
her death certificate it lists her parents as Thomas DAVIDSON and Elizabeth
WILSON. However, I also found the death certificate for Thomas DAVIDSON who
died in Wigtownshire in 1876 aged 98, which would mean he was born about 1778,
and his parents are also listed as Thomas DAVIDSON and Elizabeth WILSON. I
found a marriage for a Thomas DAVIDSON and Elizabeth BELL in Dromore in 1806
which I think could be Jane's parents, but I was hoping that someone might be
researching this family, or advise me as to where I could find information on
them.

TIA
