I think you need to be a bit more specicfic as to what you are looking for.
What have you got, where are you stuck.
I had a look at LDS for Lanark and Dunbartonshire and there are many entries on there.
LDS - Church of The Latta Day Saints? Sorry, bad pun.

Cheers sancti,
I shouldn't make fun of someones name but couldn't resist.
Sue,
Honest, I'll help if I can. Your query is just a wee bit too vague.
Welcome to Rootschat btw. Hope you get involved and enjoy it.
Dave

You have all been very helpful with your replies. I will try to be a little more specific with my requests. I am webmaster for www.latta.org and I have been updating all of our Scotland pages. We have families from various parts of Scotland that I would like to update and add too. Lets start with the Lanarkshire area. I have a Robert Latta, born abt. 1816 in Ireland, who is married to Hannah Latta, and working as a coal miner in the 1841 census in Old Monkland, Lanarkshire. His children are John, Robert, Alexr, and Sarah. I have not found a death for Robert Latta, the father, but he does not appear in the 1871 census in Rutherglen, Lanarkshire. His wife Hannah is listed as head of the house, along with daughter Catherine Crossan, age 25, and two lodgers, Fannie Cardow, age 17, and Jane Cardow, age 2. In 1881, Hannah Latta is found in Rutherglen again, in the home of her daughter, Mary Welsh, age 31 and husband Michael Welsh, 34, a coal miner, and their 5 children, Patrick, Catherine, Hannah, John, and Maggie. I am looking for more information on this family. A whole list of children would be nice, since I keep coming up with daughters. Son, Robert Latta, 44, is found in the 1861 census, in Glasgow, working as a miner, and in 1881 in Hamilton, Lanarkshire with wife Anna, and two sons, John, 11, scholar, and Robert, 23, coal miner. This is all of the information that I have so far. I have found an 1871 census for 13 Cathcart Rd., Rutherglen, Lanarkshire for a John Latta, age 35, who is a coal miner, who I believe to be the son of Robert and Hannah. Also an article from the Glasgow Herald, 12 Nov. 1873 regarding a mining accident in which John Latta of 15 Cathcart Street, Rutherglen was involved in. I believe this is the same John Latta, since he was listed at 13 Cathcart Rd. in the 1871 census. Anybody have any more information for me?

SueLatta,
I had a look at the Scottish Mining Villages site, but I cannot see a death or accident for a John Latta brfore or at the date of the Glasgow Herald article.

There are lots of LATTA's on the 1861 census index including a 12 yr old James who was born in Philadelphia USA

Hi Sue,
I'm just on my way out,but I think the John Latta at cathcart rd on the 1871 census is one of mine. He was Married to Margaret Cunningham, who I think is the sister of my gggrandfathers step father. Will have another look at all this when I get home tonight.
