    Died:
    "Catherine, b. about 1792 (estimated from census ages) is buried in Tennyson Cemetery. Her death date on stone: "11 Dec 1874, aged 89" is unlikely, since she was apparently alive when Alexander made his will in June 1875, making provisions for her continued upkeep."

    Notes:

    Married:
    "Alexander Buchanan and Catherine MacPhail [also known as Catherine Campbell], both living in the Parish of Kenmore, gave up their names for proclamation of banns of marriage on 7 January 1816. The date when the marriage actually took place is not recorded and this is quite common in Scottish registers."
