Searching for James Jamieson & Agnes Hume were married 12th Oct 1844
I have them in the 1841 census with daughter Agnes,age 5, and 2 siblings living in Westfield? Haddington, East Lothian.
By 1851 she is living with William and Euphemia Darge. Living in the Village of Abbey, Haddington
James and Agnes disapeared between 1841,51.
I am also Trying to confirm Euphemia is James Jamieson's sister
Agnes's marriage certificate to John Watson (1868) has the name Euphemia Jamieson.
Getting more confused the more I search!

Hi I am a bit confused with the dates also you say you have them in the 1841 census with children but they did not marry till 12/10/1844 Prestonkirk East Lothian is this the correct marriage ?
Going by some of the children for a James Jamieson and Agnes Hulme is this them in the 1861 census address Bolton East Lothian
James Jamieson b 1824 Haddington age 37 farm steward
Agnes Jamieson b 1824 Salton Haddingtonshire
Agnes Jamieson b 1846 Prestonkirk Haddington
Thomas Jamieson b 1848 Prestonkirk
Margaret Jamieson b 1851 Edrom
Janet Jamieson b 1854 Haddington
Jane Jamieson b 1857 Bolton
Robert Jamieson b 1860 Bolton
Is this the same family
-
1851 census address Westfield Haddington East Lothian
James Jamieson age 27 farm servant
Agnes Jamieson age 27
Agnes Jamieson age 5, Thos 3, Margaret age 10months
So the family are all together in the 1851 census and the 1861 ???

Is it possible we have two different families here ?
Checked the 1861 census for William Darge and Euphemia Darge where an Agnes Jamieson is with them born 1846 Aberlady age 15 ( sister in law ) address Village of Abbey
There is a marriage for William Darge 4/6/1858 Haddington to Euphemia Reid
Both children from the census has the mother Euphemia Reid
There is a tree with this Agnes Jamieson married to John Watson no parents listed they have a death for her June 1922 Alnwick Northumberland

I would say Agnes is the sister of Euphemia Reid there is a tree with Euphemia Jamieson Reid married to William Darge ..You might be better to get the marriage for this couple to see who her mother was and witnesses to try and work out the relationship

Hi Rosie.
Shows how confused I had got. It was the 1851 Census (not 1841 ) As you found. And I have the 1861 as you found. My dates were wrong !!!!!! :
Yes we have 2 families here. I had trouble with the sister in law entry.
Yes I have Agnes Jamieson married to John Watson 1868.
Their Daughter Agnes I have married to William Richardson Hay 1901 in Durham. I think I need to find this marriage certificate.
I have the birth Certificate for an Agnes Watson,parents Agnes and John.
Agnes was a popular name !!!!!!
Many thanks for your help.
