1851 census Alexander McCloy lookup
« on: Wednesday 03 November 04 02:25 GMT (UK) »
Can someone please look in the 1851 census for Alexander (born about 1792) and his wife Anne (born about 1795 in Perthshire).  She is a widow at 10 Clyde Terrace in Gorbals, Hutchesontown in 1861, so I think that they may be in the Glasgow area.  Alexander died 17 Jun 1860 in Hutchesontown, Lanarkshire.

Thank you so much for your help!

Linda

Linda, This is a name index only for 1851, you would need to look at the actual census for further deatails. This was the nearest I could get for a Ann and Alexander McCloy

Census taken GORBALS PROPER ward 613 Enum. dist. 14 page 16

Alexander McLay age 61
Ann McLay age 57

Thanks so much!  I am sure this is them.  I have seen their name spelled McLay before.  I'll check the actual census--I really want to know where Alexander was born.
