on the marriage its

kate rodgers wylie and on the death cert it
kate ilses wylie rodgers
or all those names but a different order maybe

and robert i believe was donalds brother
but never found them together as i said even though i spent,MANY MANY hours searching

edit,,maybe they were cousins,or diane made up the name to cover the fact she was illegit,but then,
a birth should have been found for her
i will send a message to the tree owner that you cited on evelyns behalf as its easier than explaining how!!

My mother was Diane Leslie Macleod, she was born in 1906, her father was Robert macleod, Seaforth Highlanders.At quite a young age mother was sent to live with an Aunt Kate in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, sadly I do not know the surname of Aunt Kate but do know that in the same household were cousins Donald and Ishbel. Mother attended school in Stornoway but I do not know which school. I can find no trace of mother prior to 1929 when she married my father H R J Roy in London, please can anyone help me trace her?
