Interesting how they say "Henrietta Henderson Or Sinclair" .  First time I have seen this.  Thank you I did do a search using John Henderson and Jessie Sinclair but came up with nothing..  now I will have to look again.

Thank you

Debbie ,

Have you looked at http://www.freecen.org.uk/ for the 1861 Census transcription ?
There is a John Henderson age 33 cooper with wife Janet and son John aged 8 in Caithness.

No Henrietta though , so not sure about that one

Jessie and Janet are interchangeable in Scotland (one being a pet name).

1861 - Latheron, Caithness

John Henderson    33      Cooper           b. Wick, Caithness
Janet Henderson   35                                 ditto
Ann Henderson     11                                 ditto
Christina Henderson  10                             ditto
John Henderson     8                                  ditto
Margret Henderson  6                                 ditto
Peterina Henderson  3                                ditto
Alexina Henderson   1                                ditto
Johan Taylor (?)   31   sister in law             ditto

1871 John is with his grandparents, John and Ann Sinclair, in Wick

1871 - Achsingegar, Latheron, Caithness

Janet Henderson    widow   45       born Wick
Peterina Henderson    13                ditto
Alexina Henderson     11                ditto
Janet Henderson        9                born Gormey, Caithness
Isabella Henderson    7                        ditto

(I am only able to view transcripts of Scottish census)

John Henderson married Janet Sinclair   3/11/1848 Wick, Caithness

So, your John Henderson's father John was indeed deceased by the time of his marriage in 1875.   John senior died ca.1863 to 1871.

WOW !!!!!!

I am so over thankful for what you are finding.!!  (I have always loved the friendly people on rootschat).

I am going to look over this when I get everyone settled in bed...  I must admitt my head is spinning with these names.  (Janet / Jessie)  and now the place  Latheron. 

I now have credits on scotlands people so all I need to do is find the helpful documents to set me in concrete.  :-)

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to thank all who helped last night.  (for me).  I finally found John Hendersons death certificate and it confirmed that parents name.  :-)  yes I was on the wrong track this past year.  But I do not regret it as I have learned alot of interesting facts.

I still have not found John in the 1871 census that Annette showed being at his grandparents John & Ann.  BUT..  I am sure its not too far away.

Again thank you all so very much.
