I know I have the right William Thomson listed  in the 1861 census he is age 55 born in PrestonPan Head of House hold and a Fishermen living at the Harbour North Berwick
Listed as living with him George Kelly age 21 and Mary Kelly age 22  Born Prestonpans and James Kelly age 2

1871 Census
William Thomas is now age 65 and a Lodger born Prestonpans, fisherman living with Mary ( Wife) & George Kelly ( Head)  now living at Shore street North Berwick Children James age 12, William age 10, Janet age 8, George age 5, John age 3, Richard age 1

1881 Census  - George Kelly is no longer alive

Moderator - Removed details of 1881 census as cut and pasted, against Rootschat guidelines.


I'm a bit concerned that William Thomas according to our census has been born 1811, 1809, 1806 and 1818.  Is that Normal?

Thank you so much,  a mere amateur am I.  Very excited that I have Scottish ancestry.  I had done quite well with the Kelly's .  Mary Thomson born 1837 married a George Kelly in North Berwick,  As a couple with a growing Family ,  Mary always seems to have her Dad William Living with her.  So Mary Buchan Must have died quite early on ,  bit not sure what happened to all of Mary Thomson s Siblings.

 I found them in 1861, 1871, & 1881 census  .   George Kelly Came and went ( Not sure when )  But Mary Kelly nee Thomson and her Dad William spent a long while together.  All census puts William and Mary as being born in Prestonpans and fisherman

Dad Robert Markwick 1858 brighton Sussex, his wife Kate Noble 1864.( Married Brighton 1884 ) her Father William Noble of 10 Mount Pleasant - Deceased Drew a blank with him.
 
Robert's Dad Was William Markwick of 46 Hereford Street, Brighton Married to Sarah Markwick can't find William Markwick 1861 and 1851 census. I can see him 1881 and 1871.  I think he is a 10 year old in a ORE Hastings work house 1841. ::)
