I'm having a few problems with my GG-Grandfather, Alexander Dunn of Montrose.
Here's what I've got so far -
He was a hairdresser, and married Jane Baird on 2nd February 1845.
I have them in the 1851 census living at Castle St in Montrose, along with their son, Alexander and daughter Susan.
They are still at Castle St in the 1861 census, but now they have more children - Alexander, Susan, Jane (my G-Grandmother),Eliza, Georgina, Jessie and Mary.
When daughter Jane marries my G-Grandfather, John Stronner in 1874, her usual address is still given as Castle St, Montrose, and her parents are noted as Alexander Dunn, Painter (!), deceased, and Jane Dunn, MS Baird.
I cant for the life of me find the death of Alexander Dunn, though I have found one for Jane Dunn (Baird) in 1876. Nor can I find any trace of the family in the 1871 census.
I've also looked in the OPR for any sign of the birth of Alexander Dunn and Jane Baird but with no luck.
Any help with this family much appreciated
Jim
