Mary McLea 1778- <1841?
From her 1803 m.c. Mary McLea was born to John McLea, crofter, of Wester Kames Borker,, Rothesay
Yhere are just 2 possibilities for her birth in the records
1. vaguely possible, but very young to marry in 1803 and her father John is a shoemaker in Rothesay, not a crofter

2. This is more likely, and nothing else possible in Rothsay, but I cannot prove it. The father's address is Teygoil Rothesay but I cannot get it on a map. I would have thought that her birth would have been in church records, so this is the most probable
