1841 & 1851 lookup please
« on: Sunday 20 April 14 12:37 BST (UK) »
I am hoping someone can lookup a census return for 1841 & 1851 for me.
It is John Glen, born c1833.
Son of John Glen and Mary Hogg Parker.
I think he was born in Innerkip, Renfrewshire but is living in Glasgow by 1851.
Mary may have died by 1851.
Not sure if she is still alive in 1841.
Looking for details from census, especially occupation of the younger John Glen.
Thank you.
Chris.

Chris,
            There is an 1851 census which seems to be John Glen with his father...

            Census  1851   11 Cathcart St, Glasgow.
  John Glen, 48, b 1803 Paisley, Renfrewshire, Mother's name Agnes Glen.  Agent - Woollen yarns.
  John Glen, 16, b 1835, son, b Inverkip.    Warehouseman Yarns.
  Agnes Glen, 74, b abt 1777, Paisley, Renfrewshire.
  James Parker, 35, b abt 1816, Brother in Law, b Craigie Parish, Ayrshire.   Book Keeper.
  Jane Fraser, 28, House Servant.
                                                 
            It looks like John Glen and his father might have been at the same work place.
