[edit]

The ODNB says "Findlater, Mary Williamina (1865–1963), novelist, was born on 28 March 1865 at Lochearnhead, Perthshire, the second of the three daughters of Eric John Findlater (d. 1886), a minister of the Free Church of Scotland at Lochearnhead, and his wife, Sarah Borthwick (d. 1907). Her younger sister, Jane Helen Findlater (1866–1946), novelist, was born on 4 November 1866 at 14 Claremont Crescent, Edinburgh."

Jane's birth at this Edinburgh address can be confirmed in the birth records at http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk Oddly, it is entered in both the Edinburgh and Balquhidder registers, but nevertheless they both give the same details.
