Jarvis was called many different names in the records i found including Gervase, Larase, James, Jennins, Jervis and Charles. He had 9 Children, Anne b. 1830, Mary Jane b.1832, Margaret b. 1833, Jarvis b.1834, Romeo b.1835, Caroline Catherine b. 1837, Margaret Jane b.1840, Ann b.1842 (my direct descendant) and Julie b. 1844. all baptised in St Andrew, Glasgow.

I had the 1841 census for ann and i have seen the 1851 one but wasnt sure until now if it was related and i only have one of their marriage records. the less detailed one.

1810 was just my rough estimate given the year they were married. it could be he was born much earlier.

Sorry just keep me right... Mary and Hugh are children of William John + Margaret.

And I have a census with a Mary born 1874 in ireland which doesnt match with Mary Ann born '69 in Gourock, leading me to believe it is 2 separate people and that Mary Ann possibly died in ireland. Ellen and James prob werent born '74 but close to.

I have no record of Hugh on any census so he either died young or stayed in ireland.

William John and Margaret were both born in Ireland about 1847. They were married in Gourock on 15 sep 1868. They have about 8 children.
