I spent literally hours on Scotlands People last night, searching for the death of Mary Don, who I knew was alive in 1901, aged 84.
Nothing came up no matter how I manipiuated the information. She was born McWilliam, married Milne, then married Don. There is also the possibility that she was illegitimate, so I searched under Wight as well for her mother's maiden name.
I was just going to throw it all to you lot but decided to have one last go. Up it came. The death has been indexed as MILNE, but the cert lists her as Mary DON.
Is there anyway of correcting this? Everything about the cert is correct, down to her mother's maiden name, it is just the index which is wrong.
