Gay Family Crail and beyond Part 2
« on: Monday 04 September 17 12:04 BST (UK) »
Hi

I have 4 children of Alexander Gay and Lucy Ramsay who have disappeared after 1841!    They are:

Lucy b 1 June 1820 (OPR name is Guay)
Thomas b 1 September 1823 (OPR name is Guay) 1841 with parents Crail
James b 1827 (no OPR but on 1841 census with parents)
John b 29 July 1829 (OPR) 1841 with parents

all born Crail.    No trace after 1841.

Any help much appreciated as always.

Thanks, it's good to know a bit of any further background.

Possible death for John;

GAY JOHN
54 (born c1829)
1883
682/ 8
Currie (Edinburgh)

May seem too far but many Fifers moved a bit further South although a check of further census' should help?

From your reply would I be correct in thinking you have searched all Scottish census' for the elusives & now looking for further afield  :-\

I am not doing very well on the info am I.    Sorry - yes I have tried all the census, marriage and deaths for Scotland including the various spellings of the name Guy/Guay/Gay.    I have also tried the LDS website for further afield but to no avail.   I do not have any other subscription sites on the go but am swithering with FindMyPast ?????
