Another name for Christian was Christian Tennant.
General Notes:
On her baptism record she was originally named something else, possibly Isabel, but this was crossed out and replaced with Christian.
No Christians or Christinas appear in subsequent generations of her siblings family which is somewhat unusual.
It is likely Christian and her husband were deceased by 1851. A burial record at the Bellshill Relief Church - Christian's father's church - records a burial for Mrs Tennant of Newarthill on 1 Mar 1848. This would appear to be her. At the time of the 1851 Census three children believed to be theirs were all living with Christian's siblings: James and Cathren were with Agnes Taylor nee Hardie and her family, Janet was with James & Marion Hardie. Cathren/Catherine is believed to have emigrated with Agnes and her family to the US as a "Catherine Taylor" of the right age is recorded in Census records as being part of the family, and this couple are not known to have had their own daughter named Catherine. So far, I have not been able to determine what happened to James and Janet.
Christian married Alexander Tenant on 3 Jun 1838 in Bothwell, Lanark, Scotland. (Alexander Tenant was born circa 1821 in Lanark, Scotland and died prob bef 1851.)
