I'm looking for James MITCHELL born ca 1840 Alloa. In 1851 he was living with his grandparents:
Alloa, Old Bridge
William Kirkwood head 50 woollen weaver Lanark Glasgow
Janet Kirkwood wife 50 housekeeper Clackmannan Alloa
James Mitchell grandson 11 Clackmannan Alloa
Robert Kirkwood grandson 4 Clackmannan Alloa
I'm trying to find out his parents.
Many thanks
Jan

match.

Thank you both for your replies. I'm inclined to think the one at Old Bridge is the right one because of the address. If it is, I've got a real puzzle on my hands - how is James related to the Kerrs and the Morgans?
My other problem is that James' grandparents married in 1824 so any daughter of theirs (ie James' mother) should have been born around this time or later, and the other two possibilies are too old. Plus neither of the children's name fit the naming pattern.
This could be interesting ;-)
Regards
Jan

Yes, that's what I thought. Janet married John KEIR in 1862 - at first I thought that might be the connection, but the Robert KIRKWOOD living with her parents in 1851 is hers. So that leaves Jean but I can't find a marriage to a MITCHELL.
Regards
Jan
