I am looking for anyone who may be doing research on either the FRATER or MANSON families. I am especially interested in a possible marriage between a William FRATER and Sarah MANSON. (There is possibility that it was a John FRATER that married Sarah MANSON.) I have a bibliography that claims they had a son on 31 January 1890 (William). If the eldest then I can guess they were married around that time period. I say claim because there is some conflicting information about the relationship. Someone has kindly offered to look up the birth of the son William in the Scottish indexes for me next week, but I am curious to resolve some other conflicting details. If the data is accurate then William and Sarah would have been living in Ochiltree Castle, Linlithgow in 1890. Other eclectic data implies that Sarah MANSON may have born in Glasgow in 1866. However there are other possibilities. Sorry for the vague request but I am still reading around different segments at the moment trying to piece together different bits of information and just wondered if someone had been here before and already worked it out. Regards Kerry
