Thank you Anne for finding Peter Hannah, my G grandfather and his family on the 1881 census. It is very much appreciated. Truly. Pauline

Hi Anne . Could you have a look for a Jeanie g. Snedden Glasgow area .abt 1874 Parents names taken from marriage cert [1898] were David and it looks like Jeanie Snedden. David was deceased on marriage cert so i don,t know if he would be alive in 1881 Hope this makes sense Cath

Anne Thank you for the offer of look ups. I would be most grateful if you could find a family in Scotland’s 1881 census. They are: Peter Hannah 35ish, a farm servant and his wife Jane, 28ish. I have their marriage record of 1876 from Pennighame, Wigtown. One of their sons, my G grandfather was born 1886 Girthon, Kirkcudbright. So they could be in either area. I would be interested if you could find them listed with any other children in 1881. Thank you Pauline

Hi I have trawled the England and Wales census for the following with no joy so must conclude (given the surname) that she came from Scotland. I'm looking for a Jennie Young born c 1874 Her father is Donald Young a farm labourer That's all I have I'm afraid so any help would be much appreciated. Thank you David

Anne, thanks for that wasn't sure. Will order cert tonite.

Anne, thats great. Thankyou very much for your help Carol

Janet I think your best bet would be to order your dad's birth certificate. Scotlandspeople only has births 1855-1904. Anne

Carol here he is with all his family.

Hi Anne Appreciate your offer. Could you look up William Gilmour in the 1881 census for Scotland. He was born 1860 Carmunnock, Lanark, parents names are David and Janet. Thanks Carol

It's information I am after and you may be able to point me in the right direction. I am starting on my fathers side of my tree. My fathers name is Matthew Dunlop Keir (7/Feb/1919). He was born in Killen in Stirling. His mothers maiden name may have been Dunlop but not sure. I have been advised to join Scots people and this will help me get started. I was going to send for his birth cert which will give his parents names and then join scotspeple or is there a cheaper and easier way of doing it. I know nothing of his parent (names, DOB, where born etc) I know he had several brothers and possible a sister (older or younger I do not know). Any tips would be appreciated. Many thanks

Selena sorry for taking so long to get back to you - what areas was he living in 1871 and 1891? i am having problems finding him. Anne

Hello Anne, loads of people have tried to find this chap for me but he won't be found. Charles Bateman born Deptford Kent (Now London) around 1866-1868. I have him in 71 91 01 and marriage cert. He is 3 years old on 71 census. I would also like to find his mother Frances Bateman (nee Perkins) also born Deptford around 1841. She was widowed in 1870. Last seen on 71 census. Any help is much appreciated, Selena

Hi Anne, Yes, This is Christina. Thank you very much once again Katherine

Hi Anne, Many thanks for looking for me - I have heard that they were in Scotland but not sure where - back to the drawing board! Best wishes, Jackie

Hi again Anne, Can I ask for your help once again please? I am trying to find WILLIAM TAYLOR RITCHIE BORN 12/8/1860 AND HIS SISTER CHRISTINA RITCHIE BORN 28/12/1862 BOTH IN MARKINCH - FIFE. I think Christina married a John Cunningham from Stirling but not until around 1888, but she might have been working in Stirling. William remains a mystery. Many thanks for any help you can give me Katherine
