Hi Listers

I have just spent money and looked at some records on ScotlandsPeople and discovered that my great great aunt Margaret
(b 1834) Henderson had an illegimate son John b 23 Jan 1856.

I was alerted to his existence by looking at the 1861 Tobermory census and he was with his grandparents John and Mary Henderson. I then looked at the Tobermory parish births and it says Margaret was a house servant and that the baby was born in her father's house and he was present.

I don't know what happened to either of them. Is anyone else related to these people ?
