ROBERTS, Janet

1844 - 1916  (72 years)

• Name	ROBERTS, Janet
  Born	18 May 1844	Bonhill, Dunbartonshire, SCT   [1]
  	Death certificate reads: Father: Wm Roberts; birthplace: Scotland Mother: Mary Nenet; birthplace: Scotland Per grandson H. Eugene Johnston: Old Parish Records Births for Janet Roberts list her birth date as 18 May 1844, Bonhill, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland. The cemetery marker for Janet Roberts Johnston list her birth date as 18 May 1846. I strongly believe that the Bonhill Parish record is correct (birth 18 May 1844) and that the cemetery marker date/year is wrong (my great grandfather's memory was not very good). H. Eugene Johnston"
