Margaret (Margarett) Donaldson [Leslie (Lesslie)] c1817-1872
In the entry in the Old Parish Register of Dundee, Forfar for the marriage of Margarett Donaldson and John Lesslie on 26 June 1837 it states she is the daughter of Mr Donaldson of Blairgowrie.
On entry 193 of the Register of Deaths in 1872 in the district of St Andrew in the burgh of Dundee it states that the parents of Margaret Leslie, widow of John Leslie, who died on 17 February 1873 (sic - all the other entries on the same page are dated 1872) at 9:30 am at 27 Queen Steet, Dundee were Alexander Donaldson, a ploughman and Margaret Donaldson, maiden name Donaldson, both deceased.
I cannot identify any entry in baptisms, marriages or burials up to 1854 in Scotland's People with either Alexander or Margaret. There is no entry for either Alexander or Margaret Donaldson in Blairgowrie in the Ancestry 1841 census. There is an Alexander Donaldson in the Scotlands People census but the children are those of Alexander Donaldson and Margery Buttar or Buttars. The marriage was in 1818 after the birth of Margaret. There is an Alexr Donaldson in the 1851 census born in Blairgowrie in 1796 and living there, but his occupation is a wood merchant.
Alexander Donaldson was Felicity's third great grandfather.
