Lanarkshire / Census Barony Glasgow 1871 or 1881 - John MEIKLE
« on: Tuesday 18 October 11 08:56 BST (UK)  »
Could I get some help from Census Barony Glasgow 1871 or 1881 please?
Searching for John Meikle marr. Jane Anderson on Dec 28, 1858 at Smithstone. The officiant was D.K. Meikan of the Free Church of Scotland.

Jane and John had at least two children named Thomas born. 5/3/1860 - died in 1860 and Jean Ronald Meikle, born?

Seem amazing that Jean Ronald Meikle can't be found anywhere and marriage to whom?
Her father, John Meikle was still living in 1896 but when he died, not known. His wife Jane Anderson Meikle died Feb 22, 1898 in Dullatur, East Dunbartonshire, Scotland.
Any information greatly appreciated.

Angus (Forfarshire) / Re: FORD - David born in 1769 Dunnichen - his parents are?

It is the first time I have used 'Rootschat' but not in collecting family history/facts. I wanted to be sure of my information I have on the family and go on from there and yes, Census from 1851 mentioned only that he is a farmer.

How do I get hold of the valuation rolls list the proprietors, and the names of tenants and occupiers?

Extract I have- Census 1851: David FORD born at Forfarshire Kirken, Widower, 54 yrs. living at East Mains of Craichie, Farmer. 6 labourers on the farm, noted  - Cattleman, farm servant and a house Servant. Children still living at home: Agnes 19, Eliza 17, Henry Pullar 16 - Rank Writer (App), George 14, Ann 12, David 9, John 8, Harriet 5 (Scholars) and James 3 yrs.

I am new at this and thanks for your quick reply Monica and your personal message 'topic' reply Weemanswife. I would dearly like this photo sent in the original size as it comes up like a stamp size. Can it be found elsewhere? I have now found his parents.

I cannot help wondering why did the family decided to leave this part of Scotland, East Main of Craichie, Dunnichen when it seem that David Ford, who died in 1861 owned the land, according to Census of 1841 & 1851. How much, I do not know!
 
I am not sure when 6 members settled in USA - Agnes, Eliza, David, Annie, George and John. James was in South Africa (Consul, lived also at Piccadilly, London- cannot find any information abt this) died at his home in Carnoustie where his sister Harriet was living and died here in 1912. 

My branch; Henry Pullar FORD arrived in NZ - 1862 in the Indian Empire sailing ship, paying his own passage.  Henry was trained as a Solicitor but an outdoor life was advised owning to health, so his father had him trained in orchards and garden which later proved valuable in his NZ pioneering days. He visited his family in USA and James in Africa but made his way to NZ.     

What was the reason for the whole family to leave Scotland?

Angus (Forfarshire) / FORD - David born in 1769 Dunnichen - his parents are?

David FORD born/ch. 23 April 1769 at Dunnichen, Forfar - died 17 May 1861 East Main of Craichie, Dunnichen - would very much like to know his parents' names and the information is coming from? Census or? Any other children in this branch of my family?

David married Crawford PULLAR 31. July 1830, Dunnichen, County of Forfar. She was born ca. 1807? and died 3. June 1848 in Dunnichen, Scotland. Any information about these two and if possible to push back a generation would be very much appreciated. Thank-you.
