1841 census look up please, for Thomas Gibson in Alloa
« on: Monday 02 January 06 02:59 GMT (UK) »

An open appeal for anyone who has access to the 1841 census for Alloa ...

I need a look up for Thomas Gibson, who is said to have been born circa 1780 in Clackmannanshire which may not be accurate, but in any case he should appear with his wife Hannah [Stewart].

Any help in this matter will be appreciated.

Thank you!  It certainly could be him, especially because of his wife's and daughter's information.  I have his wife, Hannah Stewart, as being born on 5 March 1784 at Alloa in Clackmannanshire and the census shows her as being aged 55 [close enough to 57] and born in the correct county.  I have their youngest child [and youngest daughter] Catherine as being born on 12 December 1820 in the same birthplace as her mother, so the data dovetails.

Thanks again,

Terrance
