McBeth
« on: Friday 13 January 06 13:23 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I'm trying to find any trace of Hector Mcbeth (or MacBeth, Mcbeath) born in Glasgow in 1823 approx.  he had moved down into Durham by 1861 but was obviously still in Scotland in 1851.  He was married to Janet and his son's included Alexander and Hector.

There is another Hector McBeath in Glasgow at that time ... he is 24 and appears to be living on his own in the St. Davids area.

In 1841 you have 1 Hector McBeth aged 15 living in "Gorbals Proper" and 1 Hector McBeath aged 15 living in Hutchestown. Neither appears to be with parents.
