Notes:
Source: Death Certificate Mary McLean: was aged 38 at time of death
Source 1851 sensus shows her as being 5 years old and living with father John and grandparents Archibald and Janet at Glaic. It shows her as being born in Greenock.
The 1871 census shows her as being 25 years old but born at Inverchaolain and daughter of John McLean married to Mary McIntyre, all living at Glaic.
When John marries Mary McIntyre it states he is a batchelor so it is possible that John McLean and Jane McArthur were not married.
