Dear Marie,
My greatgrandmother's brother, Peter George Bennett was married to Rose Ellen Crichton/creighton, daughter of Hugh Crichton and Anne Hillock.Peter and Rose Ellen/Ellen/Helen depending on what Index you read were married in Hamilton, Victoria in 1879.They moved to Adelaide and had other children.Rose Ellen died in 1887 and Peter Bennett married again.Rose Ellen is buried in the North Terrace cemetery in Adelaide with her mother, Anne Crichton/Creighton.They are buried in the catholic part of the cemetery.If you are having trouble finding Crichtons in Edinburgh you might try the catholice registers which are in the National Archives, NOT the Record Office and do not show on their indexes.Hope this helps and if you would like further info. about the Bennett children and would be glad to send it to you.Peter and Rose's first son was called Hughria George Bennett (aka Hughroy George Bennett some indexes have Hughrina!).
Regards Robin in Adelaide
