1901 census look up please for John Tait, Glasgow.
« on: Friday 10 February 06 11:09 GMT (UK) »
Is it possible for someone to do a look up on the 1901 census for Glasgow for my grandfather please?

I am trying to locate the birthplace for my Grandfather John Tait who was born circa 1890 (on his army records he gives 1890-1st ww enlistment- and for his second ww service he gives 1891). Those sharing the census entry should be;
Duncan Tait Father
Janet Tait (nee Holmes) Mother
Malcolm Tait Brother
Duncan Tait Brother

They may have been living in the Anderson area of Glasgow at the time as Duncan and Janet married in India Street and it appears that most of the family came from this area at some stage.  Thanks in advance.

You can do this yourself at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Forfarian many thanks for the reply, it wasn't until late last night that I remembered reading about researching in Scotland and different resources that can be accessed which had me scurrying around to find the article which included an item with regards to Scotlandspeople. Will be viewing that site later (and others).
