Life Events

BirthJean Kinross was born in 1841 in Kilmadock, Perthshire.2
 
(with Parents) 1841 CensusA female baby with no name recorded appeared on the 1841 Census of Deanston Civil Parish, Perthshire in the household of her parents, Thomas and Catherine Kinross. She was 5 months old and born in Perthshire.2 
BaptismShe was baptized on 6 Jul 1843 in Kilmadock, the same day as her sister Margaret.1 
Research Note The IGI parish register extraction for Jean's birth states 28 May 1843. Sister Margaret was born Feb 1843, so this is not possible. They were baptised on the same date. I haven't looked at the actual register. Her age is consistent with being the unnamed child in the 1841 census, therefore born c Nov 1840.
