Hi steady 
Are you sure that he was b. c. 1820? There is a family that looks like them in Armadale, Bathgate on the 1851: RD 662 ED 5 Page 5
Robert Lindsay, 30, shoemaker, b. Torphichen
Janet Forester Linday, 7, scholar, b. Torphichen
Agnes Lindsay, 4, scholar, b. Torphichen
William Storie, father in law, 61, shoe maker b. Torphichen
Janet Storie,m in law, 58, b. Falkirk
Can't seen anyone else who fits

Very odd - I see on the IGI that William Storie and Janet Hay were married in 1842
Have you got them separately on the 1841?

Freecen http://www.freecen.org.uk/cgi/search.pl
Will show them in Torphicen RD 671 ED 3 Page 4
William is shown as aged 23 and there are two Janet Hays in the household - aged 47 and 14. William is a Male Servant, so I don't know about the shoemaker*** one on the 1851 and 1861
Do you have any children for them that could be followed up?

Children showing on the IGI:
William - 1843
John - 1845
James - 1848
Robert - 1851 (also a bpt in 1850, so probably the first one died)
all b. Torphicen
I'll try with some of these names.

Hi
What I have found is that William died in 1891, Armadale, aged 71, married to Janet Hay. His parents are given as William Storie, shoemaker and Janet, m.s. Forrester , both deseased. Son Robet was the informant.
So the two entries that I first found in the 1851 and 1861 were William's parents

There is a possible for Janet on the 1861 but I'm not sure why she would be there:
Dykehead, Slamannan, Stirling
RD 489 ED 4 Page 2
Janet Star or Stor, 34, Dress maker, b. Torphichen, Linlithgowshire
Gadget
Added - they also seem to be living apart on the 1871.

Thankyou Gadget
I did know that Janet left William with the children from a great Aunt, I needed to know his birth place, thanks again for the help.
Regards Steady
