Biography
Agnes was born in Elie, Fife, Scotland in 1818 to Archibald Gray & Anne Ovenston. She was baptised on the 5th May.
She married John Hill in Campbeltown, Argyll on 29 November 1840. Campbeltown appears to have been a major retirement town for former coast guard officers, which was her father’s job.
She died in 1912 although she had been bedridden for many years prior.
