I am trying to find information on a relative that was born on Alderney, Channel Islands in around 1833. I have seen her name spelled multiple ways...Margaret Houghey/Houeguez/Hougie.

If anyone is familiar with this name or where I might find the record, I would greatly appreciate the information.

Thank you,

My GG Grandmother was Margaret (Marguerite) Elizabeth Ollivier who married Nicolas Houguez, she was born in St Peter Port, Guernsey 1832, they lived on Alderney, she died 10 Mar 1917.

I visited Alderney and have the Houguez family tree, there is Margaret born 11 Jan 1831, sisters Marie (3 June 1837) and Elizabeth born 21 December 1839 the parents are Nicolas born 8 January 1806 Died 10 February 1844? he married Margaret Gosselin.

Did "Margaret born 11 Jan 1831" marry a Finlay Ross and move to Canada about 1855?

Yes, this is the same Margaret. They settled in Huron County, Ontario about that time.
