James Page 1805
« on: Monday 08 February 16 04:50 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
New here so still trying to find my way around these boards.
I am wondering if any one has "any" info on a James Page 1805 - 1858 born in Kirkintilloch and married a Margaret Semple 1805 - 1882)-  in 1823.  James was my GG Grandfather. I have tried all sorts of search sights to find his parents even tried Paige just in case it was a spelling error but no success. Would be very grateful if anyone has any info they could pass on . I have details of his son and quite a few Page family members below him but nothing above the date of 1805. Happy to share what I have
Many thanks
Julia

Hi Julia , welcome to RootsChat  :)

You say James died in 1858 , but I think Margaret is showing as widowed on the 1851 Census.

There is a death for a James Page 1858 Kirkintilloch but his age is given as 13 , perhaps this was his son who was 7 in 1851.

Thanks Ev I will check that out . He did have a son James born I thought in 1847, the info on Padge is very interesting, I have found many names in our tree are miss spelt.
I know many of the family were involved in cotton weaving and a couple were tailors so again really good info.
Thanks heaps
Julia
