Hi Geordie, I can't see an Alice Willox in 1861 names index for Glasgow/Lanarkshire

1861 names index
Hutchiestown, 644/10 enum dist. 56 page 8

Euphemia McKechnie age 66 born Kilmarnock, Ayrshire
Peter McKechnie age 24 born Pollockshaws
John Muirhead age 16 born Kilbirnie, Ayrshire
Elizabeth McKechnie age 11 born Glasgow

Index does'nt give relationships, but looks like John Muirhead is living with this family

Hope this helps
Liz

Hello Liz,

Thanks a lot for the information, that is a great help.

I have read about a John Muirhead in a Will, I think.

Didn't know about an Elizabeth so that leads me to
more research.


Thanks again

Kind regards

Georgie
