Where do you get these result from . aAre they from Scotish People web site?

Thanks

I got the 1841 census details from:

www.freecen.org.uk (or just google free cen)



The rest of the information is from:

www.familysearch.org (also free)



You can also find original Parish Registers and BMD's on:

www.Scotlandspeople.gov.uk (Pay site ... but reasonable charges)

Ok Thanks for that info. It's just dont like troubling you all if I can find away of doing it my self.

Thanks to everybody on this site that offers so much free help.

Is there any chance anybody could possibly find out who lived at Agnes Crescent, Wigtown. Wigtownshire, Scotland. in year 1851 also who lived at Northside High Street, Wigtown, Wigtownshire, Scotland in 1841 Please. . I am not sure if tI am asking the impossible this time.

regards

Plaese can anyone tell me is my last request an impossible If so thats fine I will have to try something else.

Regards.

Hi Jean - don't you have Ancestry census access?

Scottish census records at Ancestry have addresses included.

You can go to the 1851 Scotland census search page, and search for Wigtownshire, Wigtown, address: Agnes.

Unfortunately there are no results.

Searching in 1841 for Wigtownshire, Wigtown, address: northside, there are no results. For address: high, there are 1026 results.

Okay, I see one that is "High Street South". So yours might be "High Street North"? No, there are no results for that.

So I tried "high north" for address, and that gets 185 results where the address shown is "North Side of High St".

So I guess the question is, what name are you looking for?

Or, if you do have ancestry access, search the 1841 Scotland census for "North Side of High St" in Wigtown and browse the results.

Is McDowall the name you're looking for?

There is this one result:

Name: Isabella Macdowall
Age: 60
Estimated birth year: abt 1781
Where born: Wigtownshire, Scotland

Civil parish: Wigtown
County: Wigtownshire
Address: North Side Of High St
Parish Number: 901

First Thank You. The Reason I was searching for these addresses.
In 1841 my g.g.greandfather lived at Agnew Cresent, Wigtown. By 1851 his wife was a widow, pauper and had moved with her children to Northside high Street Wigtown. His Yougest child at that time was only one So he must have died between 1849 and 1851. I wanted to know if relatives had taken his family in after he died. Ialso wondered who lived at Agnew Crescent after John's family had moved.

Maybe a coincidence but his eldest son James later mariied a Catherine McDowall in 1863 (in Liverpool) She was also down as from Wigtown on census.

I have also been trying to find Catherines family .

So Thank you for all the help and info you have sent me. I really do appreciate the amount of free help that is offered on this site.

Cheers

Please could anybody look in the 1841 Scottish census and see if they can find Isabella MacDowall born abt, 1781 Wigtownshire. Scotland.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Cheers
