Notes
Note
Daughter of Donald Ramsay and Catherine Anderson.
It is hard to say exactly when Charlotte was born. Donald Ramsay, Lot 14, had a daughter Charlotte baptized on 6 August 1837, no date of birth given. Charlotte Ramsay Anderson gave her date of birth on the 1901 census - 25 Oct 1846. She was living with her daughter J. Mary, born 22 August 1881. On the 1921 census, she was 94.
However, for Charlotte to have died at the age of 100 in 1925, her date of birth would be closer to 1825, which would have been a couple of years before her parent's marriage.
