I am looking for information on my grandmother. She was born in Maybole, Ayrshire around 1871. She never married but had 2 daughters (either 1 or both to James McFadzean). On the 1901 census she is listed as Lizzie Murchie and her daughters as Agnes McFadzean (b. 1892 Prestwick) and Lizzie Murchie (my grandmother c.1895). My grandmother is listed as McFadzean on her passenger list, marriage certificate & death certificate). I have been unable to find a birth certificate for her. My great grandmother is listed on the passenger list as Murchie.
I believe my great grandmother may be the daughter of Charles Murchie & Lily (Lelias or Lillias) and had a sister Agnes b. 1859-1866.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. At the moment I feel like I'm going round & round in circles.

Cheers!
Jane
