1851 Census Look Up Paisley -Kerr

[Webby]

Would someone mind having a look at the 1851 Census for William Kerr and family,  William would have been  about 51 yrs of age and his occupation was an Upholsterer. 

The 1841 Census has this household at 43 High Street, Paisley.  The 1841 household consisted of William (snr); an Elisabeth Russell aged 85; William (son-also an Upholsterer) (although he was married by 1851 to Mary Provan); then Elisabeth; Grace; Mary; Jess; Ann.

Hi Joe

This may be High Street! 

My ancestor was living at 86 High Street at the time of this Census -  so perhaps next door to Dad?
