Thank you. I am descended from Roberts line and have traced most of the New Zealand connections, and pieced together bits of the Roy family (Janet's line) in America. Just having problems with Marjory's line (if and who she married and in general what happened to her).

Hi, I have searched here in Canada but didn't find anything for her. However, she is shown in three census -- 1851, 1861 & 1871. I have found a marriage record for a Margory Scobie to a James Paterson, April 29, 1873, High Church, Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland. Not sure if this is the one you are looking for.
