ps-I suppose the plural should be censi but it sounds very pretensious.

I did try the 1881 for all of UK and couldn't find this couple.They might have emigrated of course.Thanks for trying,Jennifer.

Joan do you think they could have moved to England?

I put birthplace Etterick for all Scottish census (what is the pluaral of census I wonder) and no one with the first name Margaret came up in any of them.

The only Thomas and Margaret McCall I could find is in 1861 but it says that Margaret was born Sanquar, Dumfries and Thomas at Hollywood, Dumfries.

Many of mine came from Dumfries area but all ended up in Cumberland.

Thanks,Jennifer and Claire.I didn't have the 1851 info.Hope someone can still find them in the later censuses but I know you can't always rely on the IGI.

If you are working from this it's a user submitted marriage therefore it could be incorrect

I'm looking for Thomas McCall and wife Margaret Oliver Little in the above censuses.Margaret was born Ettrick,Selkirkshire in 1833 and married Thomas in Ettrick in 1854.That's all I have.Can't find any children on the IGI.
Thanks for any possible help.
