ANDREW McFARLANE and SUSAN OGILVY

I'm curious to know if anyone knows how we concluded that our Susan Ogilvie McFarland's parents are Andrew McFarlane and Susan Ogilvy? I'm trying to verify everything at this point.

Fellow researcher Betty McKean referred me to a post on RootsWeb that caused me to verify some information on the Scotlands People web site. Searching the Births and Baptisms for 1553-1854, narrowing the search to Ann McFarlane, 1826, I found her birth date as 9 April 1826 and her parents to be Andrew McFarlane and Susan Ogilvy of Kirriemuir Parish, Angus. The thought being that Ann may be a sister to our Susan. (NOTE: Notice here the name is spelled McFarlane.)

Betty's reference was to a post on RootsWeb which showed the marriage of this Ann to a James Neill on 7 Jun 1866 at Auchnacree Fearn, Angus, Scotland. He was born 24 Jan 1841 at Lochlee, Forfar, Angus, Scotland. Their children were: James Neill, b. 8 Dec 1866 at Farmerton Fearn, Angus, Scotland and John Neill b. 15 Mar 1868 at Tannadice, Angus, Scotland.

[NOTE: This provides some confirmation to the comments about this marriage in the Barbara Jacobson letter several of us have.]

Several types of searches for our Susan on Scotlands People now and in the past have produced no results for me. I did a births/baptisms search for S McFarlane, using Soundex, for period 1/1/29 through 12/31/31 to frame her birth year. There were only 7 locates. The only Susan was a Susan Douglas MacFarlane, b. 9 Nov 1930, to an Andrew MacFarlane and a Margaret MacNiel in Torosay and Kinlochspelvie Parish, Arygll. Where is our Susan??
