Hi Harriet,

I don't have the 1841 Cencus but I looked through the BVRs and found the births of her daughter Agnes and son James. (Richard and Robert being born after the date of Statutory Registration so not listed).

BURNS, Agnes
Gender: Female
Birth Date: 6 Sep 1852
Birthplace: Traquair, Peebles, Scotland
Recorded in: Traquair, Peebleshire, Scotland
Father: Richard BURNS
Mother: Elisabeth JOHNSTONE
Source: FHL Film 1067922   Dates: 1808 – 1854

BURNS, James Johnstone
Gender: Male
Birth Date: 20 Jun 1854
Birthplace: Traquair, Peebles, Scotland
Recorded in: Traquair, Peebleshire, Scotland
Father: Richard BURNS
Mother: Elisabeth JOHNSTONE
Source: FHL Film 1067922   Dates:1808 - 1854

I looked for Elizabeth's birth in the same area and found this one (which I searched for based on her surname having an 'e' at the end and her date of birth +/- 3 years)

JOHNSTONE, Elizabeth
Gender: Female
Birth Date: 16 Sep 1837
Birthplace: Peebles, Peebles, Scotland
Recorded in: Peebles, Peebleshire, Scotland
Father: Robert JOHNSTONE
Mother: Elizabeth HUNTER
Source: FHL Film 1067921   Dates:1816 – 1857

Anne.

Thanks for your help Anne i have come across Robert Johnstone & Elizabeth Hunter but i believe there daughter Elizabeth died around the same time as my ggggrandmother but she died in Scotland mine in NZalso following the scottish naming patterns her first daughter being Agnes i thought her mother would be Agnes i have found an James Johnstone & Agnes King so far i havent found a daughter Elizabeth thats why it will be good to see the 1841 censusthanks again Harriet Cheesy
