Well, not such an unusual name after all! There are several marriages in Fife of men named Andrew Stenhouse, unfortunately.

Two possible deaths:

I have come across papers, unrelated to me, regarding William MacKenzie who married Elizabeth Boyd on 26th October 1852. He was a Gas manager in Dunfermline at that time. They had 8 children John born at Greenock 20th August 1853; Daniel Boyd born Cupar 8th December 1854; Jessie Johnstone born Cupar 22nd June 1856; William born Cupar 13th October, 1856; Elizabeth Boyd born Cupar 15th August 1861; James born Cupar 15th August 1863; Henry born Dunfermline 21st November 1866; John born Dunfermline 4th November 1869.All this information is handwritten and is an extract from the family Bible of the above William MacKenzie

There are also papers relating to Daniel MacKenzie who married Nelly Brown on 2nd April 1879. At that time he was a gaswork engineer and lived at Steven Street, Glasgow. They had a daughter Nelly Brown MacKenzie who was born at 158 Raeberry Street, Glasgow on 25th February 1886.

Also there is a birth certificate for Elizabeth MacKenzie who was born on 14th October 1883 in Dunoon. Her parents were Daniel Boyd MacKenzie and Nelly Brown MacKenzie.

None of the above are related to me but I would be really pleased to find any living relatives to pass on these very old and interesting papers. They were found in an old writing slope type of box which has a secret compartment. Any relative is welcome to have the box too.
