So for some reason Ann Norra Fraser changed her name to Ellen Hamilton,and as she got older wanted to correct things.Not that there is anything wrong with changing your name.

I don't see that one Ellie just this one who is too old.

1857 FRASER MARGARET CAMPBELL MACNAIR F 83 CLYDE GLASGOW CITY/LANARK 644/05 1125

I think that Ann Norra is a corruption of the name Hanora or indeed Helenora or Helena so that is probably why she changed her name to Ellen. Not at all unusal for peole to change their name to something more "normal". My Grandmother was Hanora but until I started this family history lark I had only ever heard her called Norah.
