  • Notes 
    • In 1871Catherine is residing at Slackend, Torphichen, with her new husband and
      her three children, Elizabeth by her first husband and James and Helen by her
      second husband.

      Catherine died at the asylum in Larbert. Her son, Alexander Chalmers, was the
      informant but he got her parents wrong as he gave her mother as Jessie
      Cunningham nee Carlisle. This may have been her step mother.
