Mary was my g.g.grandmother, supposedly daughter of James Hogarth[coachman] and Agnes Torrie. On her marriage cert. she gave her birth date as 1840 and birth place as Lauder. She came to Australia in 1857 and married in 1862.I can't find any supporting evidence for her life in Scotland.Any help would be great.

I wish I could get in touch with a lady that was talking to my brother about our family. If we could maybe get in touch with her, or her kids, or someone in her family.

Who is Bette Lee?Jay Morris, Mon Aug 24 2:10am
I have come accross this Hogarth HQ by accident and have a question. Is this the Bette Lee that attended Omaha South High? If it is, would you please wish her good health and much joy.
