Hi bluemale38
This could be them in the 1851 census.
John Hinksman b abt 1817 Pathhead, Fife and wife Elspeth b abt 1818 St Andrews, Fife living in James Street, Pittenweem with children
David 7 , Jean 10, Jessie 5, John 3 & William 9
John Hinksman was born 30 jun 1816 Dysart parents William Hinksman & Janet Davidson
Cant find a birth for Elspeth. Her parents names should be on her death Certificate.
