Identity and duplicate assessment

The duplicate screen proposed Jean McConechie (McConechie-2) and Jean Bain (Bain-5627). Their documented Scottish families differ; neither is Jane. Her estimated 1783 birth is retained without a structured birthplace.

Still open

Questions the records have not yet answered, suggested next searches and suggested corrections.

Unresolved

Find a marriage, immigration, census or death record naming Jane's maiden surname. Do not infer it from the Mitchell surname of her husband's mother.
