I wonder if your Alexander Scott is my 4th Great Grandfather? His son William had a daughter Rubina/Robina around 1845.

Lanarkshire / James Toll/Toal 1875-1922 Census Enquiry
« on: Tuesday 06 February 18 14:28 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I've been struggling to find James Toll/Toal (1875-1922) in the 1901 & 1911 Scotland Census. Ive tried a few variants on the surname but nothing yet. He was married to Elizabeth (Lily) Corrigan/Carrigan and they lived in the Shettleston/Parkhead areas of Glasgow.
Thanks in advance

« on: Tuesday 15 August 17 23:20 BST (UK) »I have just been reading through that link.....what a great thread, well set out for researching & hopefully a great help?Alexander Sharp. baptised 01 Aug 1790. father Peter Sharp. mother Mary Adamson.http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=286748.0;PHPSESSID=ak9ugvuqpcjm4mufrfkcahn126

Yes for a base to start a new project. I had a look on Ancestry this evening and the Clackmannan Sharps seem to be popular for members there.
Most have got the Sharps back to 1585. However I will take the information with a pinch of salt as looking at the information without my own eyes on the records, people are showing up with Sharps marrying Sharps etc. Perhaps cousins.. I hope..
The furthest Sharp I currently see on Ancestry is:
John Sharp ( 1585- 1606 )
Married
Elizabeth Hunter (1589 -1616)
Clackmannan still the location of the Sharps.
If information is correct then Im at 10th GG level.

Thanks for this!
Just reading this old thread about the Sharps

Wow, this is going back the furthest I've experienced in my Ancestry to date.
Usually I'm stuck at Irish records late 1790s on my Sherry side..

They married in Clackmannanshire.What is the first census where Christian is shown as a widow?
You haven't answered Carole's question whether Christian was a widow?
Being 'Head' doesn't necessarily mean being widowed as they may have just been separated?
Were both 'of this parish' when they married?
Annie
Forgive me but could you give me time to edit and reply?
. Struggling with an old phone and bad connection. Christian was a widow on her death certificate. The rest of the information is all I know at this stage.
