1891 and 1901 Census Look-up Request - LOCKHART
« on: Wednesday 13 August 08 11:46 UTC (UK) »

Seeking transcriptions from 1891 and 1901 Censuses of Sorbie.

LOCKHART family; father John (b. c 1860, Sorbie) and mother Maggie (m.s.  THOMSON or THOMPSON) (b. c 1861, Sorbie) married 01 July 1881, Wigtown. John is believed to have been a Blacksmith.

They had at least one daughter Elizabeth (b. 26 Jun 1904, Whithorn, Wigton, d. 11 Oct 1949, Dunedin). Family lore tells of other siblings; specifically a Catherine and a brother (name unknown).  I am endeavouring to discover when the family emigrated to New Zealand; obviously between Elizabeth's 1904 birth and her 1935 marriage to my great-uncle Hugh.

Apparently, over both Censuses, there are 8 children; 4 girls and 4 boys all born in Wigtownshire, mostly in Sorbie. Two daughters known names are Catherine and Elizabeth.

Regards and thanks.

Pam

MANY thanks for your rapid assistance. Now I can go looking for their deaths at

http://www.dunedin.govt.nz/facilities/cemeteries_and_crematorium/cemeteries_search

FOR FREE. The website lists a John Lockhart, age 81 years, died 1941, Years in NZ 28. He is the ONLY John Lockhart who is NOT a native of NZ. My Lockharts lived in Dunedin so there is a good chance THIS is my John, putting arrival in NZ circa 1913.

Thank you again. Now to locate vessel, port of entry, etc.

Sorry to bother again Pam

Was there an age recorded for son William T in the 1891 Census?

I don't know if you have access to Ship arrival data in NZ, but I had a couple of sites bookmarked that might help if you don't, so here you go.  Smiley
