Narrative

Jane's maiden name is found on her son Joseph's death record in June 1863, in Kilbirnie, Ayr, Scotland

----------------------
I searched for "J Hamilton", female, dying between 1841 and 1851 anywhere in Ayr at ScotlandsPeople,
http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/Search/results.aspx

The only result was this one. She was an 8 month old daughter of a John Hamilton:
DoD Surname Given Other name on record

I searched for J Hamilton", female, dying between 1851 and 1854 in Kilbirnie or Dalry. No matches.
There were no matches for "J Hamilton" in Kilbirnie from 1855 to 1861.
There were 3 matches for "J Hamilton" in Dalry from 1855 to 1861. Only one was for a Jane Hamilton. She was a 16m old daughter of William and Elizabeth Hamilton. One was for a Janet Hamilton, age less than 1 year. The third was for someone whose name started with "Je" but did not start with "Jen" or "Jean".

So: I didn't find anything for her death record from 1841 to 1861 in Kilbirnie or Dalry. The site says that death records for this time period are scarce. If Jane died before 1855, her death record may not be anywhere.
