Hi Siobhan I don't know if can help me, I am trying to trace my Grandfather Robert James Keith Macquire born in 1878. I have been told he may have been born in Scotland But I don't know what part. If you could help me I would be very grateful. Thanks Debbie

Hi Siobhan Scotland 1881 please - or maybe they are in England or Timbuctoo! Many thanks for the offer. This family is really doing my head in! (belongs to husb of course - mine are easier to find!). I have the births/christenings of his g.grandmother and 4 siblings. Can not find any of them, or parents, anywhere on 1881 on scotlandspeople. Margaret M(a)cDonald b.12.05.1849 @ Harris, Inverness-shire Angus M(a)cDonald b.20.01.1852 @ Harris Mary M(a)cDonald b.01.03.1854 @ Harris Flora M(a)cDonald b.28.05.1856 @ Rodel, Harris Christina M(a)cDonald b. 30.03.1861 @ Luskintyre, Harris Parents: Donald M(a)cDonald b. presumably pre 1833 Margaret M(a)cDonald, nee M(a)cLeod b. presumably pre 1833 Can't find their marraige, but its recorded on Christina's birth cert as 1849 March, Harris. Have birth certs for Christina (g.grandmother) and Flora. Christina married in Glasgow in 1888. Can not find her or any of the rest of the family in 1881. Dad Donald was variously a Ploughman/Farm Servant/Farm Grieve. Many thanks if you are able to look for them. I hope they don't try your patience as much as they have tried mine! Regards Ellen.

Hi Siobhan Please could you look on 1881 Census in Edinburgh for any Jonas families born in Prussia, trying to link any together,think they were in Fur Trade Any information appreciated Thanks Tom

HI Siobhan,Thanks for the offer,Could you look for Margaret Mclean I believe she married David Mcgarva 1896,they came from the Larkhall/Dalserf area,her parents were James/Janet Mclean,Hope this helps....regards Rita White (Mclean)

Hello Siobhan, Thanks for the offer,this is a long shot...1881 Scotland I am looking for.. Maggie Laird b 1876 father James. sorry this is all the info I have. Best wishes Maureen

Hi Siobhan Thanks so much for double checking my Thomas Stickley. I looked for him on 1841 Census at the Family Records Centre but could hardly make anything out! If you're using the same images, you deserve a medal! Many thanks again. Best wishes Natalie

Thankyou Siobhan This may well be him. Had not thought he may have remarried and that certainly looks like a second marriage thanks once again jamie

Many thanks : )

Annie will keep an eye out.

Hi, Siobhan, I wonder if I could trouble you to just keep an eye out for my gt gt gt Grandfather on the 1841, middlesex as he has gone AWOL! My Dad found his wife and children living in Ealing, but no sign of him anywhere in that area. He is one Moses Cowdrey, b. 1818 in Harrow. Obviously I don't expect a look up, but if you should happen across him while searching, please kep me in mind. Many thanks Annie x

HiYA Just to let you know that I haven't forgotten those of you waiting to have a lookup. I will try to get them done sometime over the weekend. Natalie - YES Thomas was living alone, but it is hard to identify as it doesn't give relationships on the 1841 census and the writing is terrible.

Siobhan Thank you so much for looking up Thomas Stickley for me, and finding his son and family as well! Three generations in one look-up was a lot more than I was expecting!! You are really very kind. Only thing that surprised me with the information was that Thomas Stickley was born in county, and the others out of county. From other records I've got, I thought it was the other way around! It's a bit cheeky to ask, but was Thomas Stickley living alone? Will understand if you don't have time for a second look! Meanwhile, thanks a million for the 1841 details. You are a complete star! Natalie

hi Siobhan thank you very much that is a grat help thank you allen

Siobhan, thank you for your kind offer. Could you possibly search the 1841 census for HENRY NIGHTINGALE b.1823 Enfield MDX I am trying to find his parents and/or family.
