Hey Diana Another one! "HUTCHISON, Female - B14/4/1854 - At Hanover Street, here, on the 14th inst., the wife of Mr Hutchison, draper, of a daughter." I think this might be Catherine Hutcheson daughter of Hugh Hutchison and Catherine ?(from Girvan in Ayrshire), I however had them living in Kirkcowan and indeed he is listed as draper there in the 1851 census. Regards Margaret. DIANA HENRY <dianahhenry@btinternet.com> wrote: BIRTHS HUTCHISON, Female - B14/4/1854 - At Hanover Street, here, on the 14th inst., the wife of Mr Hutchison, draper, of a daughter.
