	Having looked at Cecelia's birth, I now think that 1841 census is a mistranscription of her name. Not sure how you could make Isabella out of Cecelia but maybe the original is a bit feint. First name(s) Cecilia Last name Liddel Gender Female Birth year 1809 Birth place - Baptism year 1809 Baptism date 01 Oct 1809 Baptism place LINLITHGOW, WEST LOTHIAN, SCOTLAND Father's first name(s) Thomas Father's last name Liddel Mother's first name(s) Marion Mother's last name Murray Residence Linlithgow, West Lothian, Scotland Place Linlithgow County Linlithgowshire (West Lothian) Country Scotland Record set Scotland Births & Baptisms 1564-1950 Category Birth, Marriage, Death & Parish Records Subcategory Parish Baptisms Collections from Scotland, Great Britain Index (c) IRI.

	That is why I try and check them but when you haven't got world wide ancestry you have to rely on people helping which is appreciated and this is why I was looking into my heritage at the moments it's £92 for the year I only paid £76 for ancestry Thank you
