Hello Alexander, I had previously written to an Alexander Bisset but I don't know if you are one in the same or not. If you are, my message may not have gotten through. Anyway, the following message posted by A Bisset shows a Catherine STEPHEN married to a Robert JACKSON. http://newsfeed.rootsweb.com/th/read/BISSETT/2007-06/1180954810 And also this site... http://www.angelfire.com/ny4/peterhead/d0004/g0000012.html#I01905 My interest is with Catherine Stephen. The above site shows her parents to be James STEPHEN and Janet DAVIDSON. My 4th great grandparents are James Stephen and Janet Davidson through their son William Stephen, brother to Catherine. The only speculative data I have is the 1841 and 1851 census for Robert Jackson and Catherine Stephen. The 1851 shows Catherine born in Kintore, the same time frame as James S and Janet D's daughter Catherine. The above site shows Catherine died prior to 1855. I have not yet checked for any SP death records on Catherine. I just thought I would check with you to see if you have any proof that the Catherine Stephen married to Robert Jackson is the dau of James Stephen and Janet Davidson. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Here is my Stephen tree... http://home.windstream.net/smith27/Barbswebpage/STEPHEN.html Thank you in advance. Barbara
