Ayrshire / John Kean, Kilmarnock, Census
« on: Monday 21 March 05 11:25 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
I'm searching for John Kean, Shoemaker, of Kilmarnock.  He was married to Maggie Kean (MS Stitt...not sure what that means). 
They had a son, Andrew, born in 1895.  They were living at 6 Fowlds St, Kilmarnock, at the time.  I imagine that John was born before 1875 at least.

If anyone else is looking for Keans, would love to know.

If anyone is looking in the 1881 Census, would appreciate details on John and Maggie.

Many thanks
Gaynor

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Wintby....is there such a place?
« on: Friday 18 March 05 12:25 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
I am new to this board, and to genealogy as well.

Using the 1901 Census data, I have managed to trace my great-grandmother, Mary A Foster, born in (about) 1848, in Wintby, Yorks.

Is there such a place?  Could it be a typo, and be Whitby instead?
If it is Wintby, where do I go to find parish records?
Foster is her married name...how would I go about finding her maiden name?

Sorry if these are dumb questions!
Thanks in advance for your help.
