Trying to find Margaret Fraser, I believe she was born in Ullapool about 1833/4 and migrated to Australia about 1852. Married Donald MacRae in Geelong Victoria in March 1853. She is my G G Grandmother
Any information would be appreciated. Sandra

You could go to Scotlands People, and then buy credits to see the actual image, and maybe get more information
