Dunbartonshire / Re: Margaret Thomson 1846. Dumbarton, Scotland
« on: Tuesday 04 October 22 23:27 BST (UK) »The 1871 census for Chester England shows Margaret Gilson (nee Thomson) wife of Reuben as born in Dumbarton Scotland, about 1845.
In 1881 census the Gilson family is in Lancashire, and Margaret is still showing as born in Dumbartonshire. Two children with them John 10 born Dumbartonshire, and Levina 6 born Salford.
(The name Levina is interesting.)
Margaret (a widow, age 38) married again in 1885 Lancashire to Enoch Bedson. On the marriage record her father is John Thompson, deceased.
In the 1901 census, Margaret is still recorded as born in Dumbarton.
Yes, that's correct.
