HARCUS/HERCUS - 1841 census Burntisland

[JAP]

Harcus,

There do not seem to be any people called HARCUS but there are a few HERCUS entries (remember ages were rounded down to the nearest 5).

ED1, page 1
High Street North
STEVENSON Helen, 65, born Fife
STEVENSON Eliza, 25, born Fife
HERCUS Alexander, 25, Cabinet Maker, born Fife
The above household is next door to a Thomas DEALLY family (see my other post).

ED 1, Page 39
High Street South
WATERSON Barbara, 65, born England
HERCUS Agnes, 14, born Fife

ED 2, Page 5
Back Street
HERCUS Thomas, 55, F. Seaman, born Fife
HERCUS Christian, 55, born Fife
HERCUS Helen, 15, born Fife
CARLINE Margaret, 10, born Fife
I see that the IGI has an extracted entry for a Thomas HARCUS marrying a Christian PORTER, 11 Jan 1820 in Burntisland.  Also birth of Helen to them, 18 Sep 1822.
