Renfrewshire / Re: 1851-1891 census lookup please

It was the Watson that got me in your original post.

I think we're dancing around a bit here.  My paternal grandmother was Margaret Leckie from around Houston (Renfrewshire!).  The names all seem to be family ones (John, William, Watson), so perhaps we're all cousins.

I'll check with my brother who still lives in Johnstone.

Interesting!  My father was John Watson Speirs, born c1914.  I lived at 3 Thornhill, Johnstone and my grandparents (William? and Margaret) lived at "The Thorn"), about 100 yards up the road.
