HYPOTHESIS: WHICH SPOUSE IS GEORGE 1792'S MOTHER?
30
Above there are a half-dozen possible candidates with records at Family Search, all of whom have documentation at ScotlandsPeople.gov.uk
31
Assumptions 1 and 2 same as above.
32
Assumption 3: Spouses are born within 5 years of each other with a bias toward male being older.
33
A1 rules out: Agnes Meston, beyond early range, and Jean Smith, at edge of early range.
34
A2 rules out: Mary Gordon: Stracathro, near Brechin, too far south.
35
A2 rules out: Ann Cromar 1754: Lanarkshire too far south (and spouse Robert Davidson lives long).
36
A3 rules out: Ann Cromar 1743, too early for John 1754 or later.
37
Ann Cromar 1745 remotely possible for John 1754 (son of Alexander), 1754 (son of George), 1755 (son of Robert), or 1757 (son of John). Reason: second marriage (Robert dies 1779).
38
Ann Cromar 1751 possible for John 1754 (son of Alexander), 1754 (son of George), 1755 (son of Robert), or 1757 (son of John).
39
Ann Cromar 1766 possible for John 1760 (son of Robert) and 1766 (son of William).
40
41
18 POSSIBLE COMBINATIONS OF JOHN (6) AND ANN (3): SOME MORE PLAUSIBLE, SOME LESS
42
Criteria 1: Age adjacency among parents and ideal childbearing age for George.
43
Criteria 2: Proximity to Lumphanan for the birth of George (marriage or birth data in or near Lumphanan).
