Don’t have her on any other census after the 1841 I assume she’s a widow on that no sign of John Shaw but who knows. I do know this is the right Mary Shaw and the right mother Jean/Jane because her daughter my ancestor Mary Shaw later McEwan is still living there in 1851 with her husband Robert unless it’s a massive coincidence…

Both ancestry and FreeCEN say that the 1841 census gives her age as 50 and born in Ayrshire. Have they both mistranscribed it?

I don't know why I think she was born in 1804 no the census does say 50 I have it.

So more likely 1791 for a birth year.

I don't know why I think she was born in Muiravonside, Stirling either perhaps because that's the marriage location!!

I need to go and look at where I got that information.
