    • NOTE: This might not be our Peter and Mary because K&K is about 200kms from Avondale where all their children were born. However, there are three indications that it could be them:-
      * The timing of the banns/wedding had them both aged 23 years old - which is reasonable.
      * The timing of their marriage was 2 or 3 years before the birth of their first (surviving) child.
      * The 1841 census has them living in Avondale but having been born in another county. So it is possible that they moved from one parish to the other soon after their marriage.
    Residence They might have been living in the parish Kilbrandon & Kilchattan at the time of wedding.
    They lived for many years in Snaib Row (Avondale parish) because all their children were born there.
