Misc. Notes
Jean/Jane was not living at Coppagach farm in 1851, but her actual residence that year has not been determined. [648]
The best matches found are a Jane STEWART, age 22, born in Moulin, living at East Haugh, Moulin, as a Dress Maker. And another Jane STEWART, age 23, born in Moulin, living in the city of Perth as a House Maid. And a Jean STEWART, age 19, born Blair Atholl, living in Auchtergaven as a servant.


Marriage record says Jean’s mother was Christian CAMERON, not Catherine!? [108] Jean’s birth record says Catherine.
