I was trying to find Robina in 1891 but Ancestry is playing up again.


She is a servant was hoping she was with family

Thank you ,Glitter Baby.I couldn't find their marriage on the Familysearch site but being after 1871 that's not surprising. What was Robert's occupation in 1891 please? If it is my Marion she's taken a wee liberty with her age.

1871 Robert Hart is a shipping porter which does not match with 1891

Sorry can not view images on Ancestry

Not really sure about this being the right one. You might have to look for a marriage and find out if her parents names match

Hi Amanda,if you're still online-it occurred to me that the Agnes Hart,11 mo in 1871 ,may be Marion Ingles' baby as Marion's Mum was an Agnes.I'm wondering whether the census says whether Robert Hart is married,unmarried,widowed? Also please ,what was his occupation? Sorry for keeping you going like this but I'm really pleased to have found her again.

That looks more promising ,Anita.You did well! Any chance she is still in the Hart household in 1881?

Joan Report 2 Dec 2007 14:41

Thanks for that,Anita-worth considering as both Marions started having their children sometime after the birth of Joseph in 1864.
Bye for now,
Joan

Joan Report 2 Dec 2007 14:17

It's possible of course or they might have emigrated .When you're looking in the census ,Anita,is it possible to try Marion.......... born Biggar,1838 in case she married someone else? Thanks so much for trying for me.

Joan Report 2 Dec 2007 12:29

Thanks,Anita-all I know is he was married to a Susan Ferguson in 1850 in Edinburgh parish and they had a son William Stott in St Cuthbert's parish,Edinburgh in 1851.I'm thinking Susan may have died and he hooked up with my Marion but without marrying her.His parents were William Stott and Margaret Johnston and he was born 1825 in St Cuthberts parish.

Hi all,
I have a Marion Inglis born 1838 in Biggar ,Lanarkshire ,Scotland and am trying to find what happened to her after the birth of a son registered as Joseph Hetherington Inglis or Stott in Edinburgh in 1864.The child ended up living with Marion's parents by 1871 and was still with them in 1881.In 1861 Marion was with Alexander Johnston Stott in Reikies Court,65 Nicholson Street ,Edinburgh but I'm assuming they weren't married .Could some kind person look for Marion and possibly Alex Stott in 1871? Many thanks,
Joan
