Jean Fenton
17?? - ????

Jean was Calum's and Jamie's great great great great great great great grandmother.

It is not known when Jean was born. The highest probability is that she is Jean Fenton, christened in Perth in 1725, but a lot of work needs to be done to confirm this. If true, her father would have been Robert Fenton, and her mother Janet Coldstream, which certainly fits in with the fact that she called her daughter Janet.

Jean married John
Leitch on 27th July 1739 in Trinity Gask, Perthshire, Scotland.
