Sorry Erica but you confused me by saying that

snip

I believe her parents to be Peter Morgan b c 1828 and Margaret Burt b c 1826
married in Cockpen parish c 1848.

The only evidence of a marriage is recorded as MOGGAN.

because you only had a 'c' date I wondered if your evidence was from an
index, a transcription - or perhaps from one of the other types of record
which require parent details.

If you have a photocopy of the original, could the word be HOGGAN or HUGGAN
- a fairly common name in southern Scotland.

Of course, this would chuck a spanner in the the works.
