Query on Ann PINKERTON

correct link to husband Sir John Jamison

Suffice to say that Sir John had "several mistresses and illegitimate children" and there is no proof of any marriages other than with Mary. I received my information from a match and from Family Search - Ann Pinkerton could have been a housekeeper like the others. William Jamison, the son from this relationship, was not acknowledged and there are no birth details for him. The dates for Ann are strange too, although she died in Hunter's Hill in 1874. Could be a coincidence?
Someone must know something because she is on the Family Search family tree.
