Yes I thought that also and thought hawker of stoneware
as was listed as stoneware merchant on 1851 census.

In the image for the 1861 census posted by Gins on page 1, the handwriting's terrible, but there are also some changes.

Felix's surname could be either McCarron or McCarson, and his first name was first entered as Peter, then crossed out and changed to Felix. He's listed as a lodger at the address. Wonder if Peter's an alternative name, or just a mistake?

Isabella Carson - could be Carron (or McCarron with the Mc missed out.)
She was first listed as his wife, then that's been crossed out and changed to Lodger.
But both are listed as married, so she presumably was his wife.

His occupation is hard to decipher, but might be Hawker.

Its a very unusual name till you put it on IGI and then
its something else.
Would like to find his birth in Ireland.
Thanks again for your help and to all who gave their
time in this. Will pass this on to my friend and see what he thinks.

These are the only marriages in Scotland between a Felix and an Isabella, between 1855 and 1870.

1861 CORRIGAN FELIX MCFARLANE ISABELLA ABBEY BURGH /RENFREW 559/01 0127

1867 MCGACHAN FELIX ANDERSON ISABELLA DUNDEE THIRD DISTRICT DUNDEE CITY/ANGUS 282/03 0041

And only one in the old parish registers on SP.

13/07/1832 CROMBIE FELIX ISABELLA SHANKS/FR1227 1538 (FR1227) M NEILSTON /RENFREW 572/00 0050 0111

So either Catherine died before he married Isabella, or it's a different Felix!
But it's an unusual name.

On Banchory Ternan one married to a Isabella,
soooo??

argyllgran will check that one out for Felix

Thanks again argyllgran for Mary's birth.
Liam I wonder, looks a good.

???? DEATH

1868 MCCARRON FELIX
DUTHIE (Mother's surname) M 68 BANCHORY TERNAN /KINCARDINE 252/00 0020

Maybe a connection

Death 1st Quarter 1881 Clogher, Monaghan.

Felix Macarron aged 86, birth year, 1795

Daughter Mary's birth:

20/08/1827 TRUEMAN MARY ANDERSON WILLIAM TRUEMAN/CATHARINE BLACK F ABERDEEN ABERDEEN CITY CITY/ABERDEEN 168/0A 0210 0409

Thanks argyllgran so date was correct but Trowman not Trueman,
Gins don't know when Catharine died but will try the name Trowman/
McCarran

I think I am getting very confused with SP!

I was wondering, do you know when Catherine died? This census popped up and was wondering if Felix married again?

Transcription error maybe?

Yes Gins Parish registrations sorry.

I did not find a death for William Trueman or Catharine,
did try her maiden name but with no luck which I feel
I must have missed something on them all somewhere
along the line.

Here's the Trueman marriage, on SP:

03/12/1822 TROWMAN WILLIAM CATHARINE BLACK/ M OLD MACHAR ABERDEEN CITY CITY/ABERDEEN 168/0B 0160 0085

Statutory Marriages Index

The statutory marriages index contains entries from the the civil registers of marriages for all Scotland, from 1855 until 2009.

The index does not include the full date of the event, because only the year was captured when the indexes were compiled, although the full date is present on register entries themselves

Sorry I meant statutory marriages. Do you have parish registrations?

Gins marriage records on SP go back to 1538 to
1854, I have a marriage record for 1789 for an
ancestor.

Was Chatherine Black married to William Trueman and she reverted back to her maiden after his death?

Thanks Gins her son Robert Trueman was b 1825
so would fit there but wonder where her daughter
Mary Anderson Trueman b 1827 is.

There are 10 matches for a Felix Mc* searched between 1855-1860

Statutory Register Marriages 1855 - 1860.Learn more. 10 matches

But if they married before befor 1855 there will be no records on SP
