| Note | At the time of the 1851 census in North Dumfries, Robert Carrick is a widower and shown as a laborer and he appears to be in the Alexander Scrimger household. Isabella, his surviving daughter of his first marriage hasn't been found, but there is a child of age 9 named Sarah Fraser, in the Donald Fraser household. At the time of the 1861 census in North Dumfries Isabella Carrick, so named, age 19, is in the Fraser household. It's possible that they are one and the same. A family story has it that the Frasers raised Isabella after Sarah's death. |
