Hugh NEIL
« on: Thursday 15 October 09 07:10 UTC (UK) »
Hi, my Great Great Grandfather is Hugh NEIL.

I have the 1851 Scotland census of him age 20 being an apprentice baker, living 226 High st.

I would like to know who his first wife was, as on his second marriage cert (in 1868 in New Zealand to Hannah DIXON) it has him listed as a widower.

I couldn't find him on the 1861 census, so I'm guessing he came to NZ between 1851- 1868.

Regards Gail

Who is he listed with on the 1851? 

Does his marriage cert show details of the names of his parents?
Any clues as to who his parents are?
Are you sure he didn't marry his first wife in NZ?

There are a lot of marriages for a Hugh Neil in the Glasgow area, between 1851 and 1868, on the IGI.

Hi Sonlyme, thanks Smiley

Census night 1851, Hugh NEIL was living with Thomas GOODWIN and his family, Thomas is a Baker and there is another apprentice baker living there also by the name of Josph BROCKS.

I have been told that Hugh NEIL was 21 when he married his first wife, I'm fairly confident this was in Glasgow.

I think Hughs parents are John NEIL and Mary NEIL nee JOHNSON

And that sorry is all the info I can give you  Smiley
