Hi Margaret, Please look in the 1881 census for Neil McLean, age about 44 and his wife, Margaret, age about 42. Also their son, Charles, age 18 or 19 who may be living with them. Charles was born in Tradeston, Glasgow in 1862 so they may still be there. Many thanks, Lilian

Yes Margaret - I'm pretty sure this is my husband's family. The Robert aged 64 is my husband's gggrandfather and you have found more children - Henrietta, John and a family for Alex. Robert and Margaret's eldest son Robert b 1850 married in NZ in 1879. Now I have ages for Robert and Margaret I can look for their births. Thanks so much, Christine

Margaret, Thanks for the offer. I am hoping it is name indexed, if it is street indexed then please don't worry. I am looking for: Thomas McHugh with daughter Margaret, no dates sorry. She is my gt granny, my nana put on her marriage lines Thomas Mchugh as father, but she was illegitamate, so I am hoping she has quoted her ganddad. Thanks a mil Kim

Hi Siobhan, I presume that you have their marriage certificate? Do you have their parents names and their addresses on the certificate? Thanks Regards Margaret

Margaret I know I have asked you to look up these before. But thought i would ask again, in the hope I may be lucky second time round I am looking for Alexander Taylor Marr, who I am presuming would be between 20 and 30, possibly younger or slightly older. In 1889 he was an engine keeper possibly working at the docks in Edinburgh, so is likely to have the same occupation in 1881. In 1889 he married Isabella Newlands who I presume would be around the same age, not sure of her occupation but she would also be from around the Edinburgh area. If you can find either it would be great. I doubt very much they were living together as this would be unlikely before they married. Regards, Siobhan
