Colin...Am wondering if the following are related to William.....
Can you double check 1851 census image to see if William was a "Trunk" Maker (not a "Frank" Maker as transcribed above)



Address: 33 Millers Place St Mary's Parish Glasgow (1851 Census)

Did he have any children born in Scotland? If so, the birth reg should have the date and place of his marriage.
