Arantina Henrie McCall 1827 - 1893

1827 Arantina Henrie McCall was baptised on 24/3/1827 to Robert McCall & Jean Bell in Kirkbean, Kirkcudbright , Kirkcudbrightshire, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.- Scotland's people But no Robert McCall marriage to a Jean or to a surname like Bell anywhere in Scotland 1800-1827 - so a seeming dead end here.

Cannot find the baptism for any of Robert's other children- Herriet, Elisabeth, Alexander, Jacob,Jane?

I could purchase this baptism but it will likely not tell me anything more- maybe a different form of the mother's name??

Does Herriet marry a Harkness?

1852 -1858 she 'married' twice widowed Samuel Youd- but whether legally or just as a common law wife I do not know. How did she end up in Kinnerton?

Her life then as his until 1885.

1885. Samuel Youd, 68, likely died Chester - this reg. district included Hawarden by this time- Bmd. No FMP burial . No probate!

Having resorted to being Henrietta Youd in the 1871C, she changes to being Harriet from the 1881C onwards

1891C. Harriet Youde, 62, widow,b. Scotland, is living with son Samuel & grandson Alexander at 1, Brownbill Place, Cleminson Street, Salford- just to west of Manchester

1893. Harriet Youde dies, aged 62, Salford, on 24/11/1893 - this would give a birth of 1831! - date from Ancestry Blankenship tree- contacted 29/11/2013; they seem somehow ? connected to her son Thomas Youd 1858 . No burial on FMP
