[geniebug]

Could someone please look up 1871 Census for Scotland for the following.

William John Laughland and his to be wife Agnes (Green). They lived in the Paisley Renf. area, and were both born in 1858.

Note, they were single in 1871. William J had been a journeyman/baker.

Agnes Green's parents were Bernard Green & Mary Ross (she had sisters Robina b 1855, Catherine b 1860 and Mary b 1863

woo hoo - thanks for that Liz!!!!

So no William around? I've known his name to be Lauchlin(e), Laughlan(d) Lacklin and all sorts of other names.

I'm having trouble with William! I found one at boarding school, but I would have thought perhaps his family wouldn't have afforded that.
I'll have another look.

Perhaps it's this one:



Piece: 573
Folio: 6
Page: 9
Registration District: Middle & Low Parishes
Civil Parish: Middle Church
Municipal Borough:
Address: 1, Old Sneddon, Middle Church
County: Renfrewshire

He is 12, a scholar and born in Ayrshire.

With Jane, widow 35. Cotton thread mill worker born Paisley
Jane 7 scholar. Born Paisley.
Catherine Riley. Born Ireland. Aged 50. Farm worker.

Yep, you have got it~ that's him too Liz

Many thanks for your help. It proves his father was deceased before 1871

[ElizabethHerts]

I'm pleased I found them for you. Once I looked under alternative spellings, up he popped!

Another one I am looking for but its a difficult one is a Samuel Lauchlan

1861 Census of Scotland shows that
William Laughland lived at 8 Moncrieff St, Paisley aged 33 (Miners Labourer), born in Ireland,
Jane, aged 26 born Renfrewshire, Paisley,
Samuel, Son aged 10, (Scholar), born Lanarkshire, Glasgow,
William John, Son aged 2, born Ayrshire, Auchinleck and
George Laughland, Son aged 6 months) born Renfrewshire, Paisley. Therefore William must have been born in Ireland in 1828, Jane in Paisley in 1835.
Samuel (whom we know nothing about) must have been born in 1851. I believe William came from County Derry, Ireland

We didn't even know about Samuel, as Jane & William did not marry till Oct 1855 and yet here was Samuel 10 years old. We thought Samuel must have been from an earlier marriage'

But never seen anything of him since. He was obviously born 1851

No idea how they've spelt Laughlan to look for him
