Hi All,
Just a thought.......... but is there any way of finding out who lived in Knockusion Street (I hope that is the correct spelling) in Givan between 1881 - 1900's?
Some of my Gillespie descendants lived in that Street and one family lived at number 21.
Regards
Wendy

Hi Wendy
You can search ancestry by address. If you're specifically looking for just Gillespies there are a couple in 1891 with no street number...
Registration district: Girvan
Civil Parish: Girvan
Town: Girvan
County: Ayrshire
Address: Knockushion St
Jane Gillespie, age 29 wife, b. Dunbar, Haddingtonshire
Thomas Gillespie, age 29, head, b. Girvan, Ayshire, occ: Tailor
and a family at number 21 in 1891 like so:
Registration district: Girvan
Civil Parish: Girvan
Town: Girvan
County: Ayrshire
Address: 21 Knockushion St
William Bain, age 7 1/2, grandson, b. girvan
Lizzie Gillespie age, 34, daughter, b. girvan
Margaret Gillespie, age 60, head, b. girvan
John McMurtrie, age 15, boarder, b. girvan
Maggie McMurtrie, age 6, boarder, b. girvan
Thomas McMurtrie, age 19, b. girvan
Best wishes
