1851 census image?
« on: Saturday 07 April 07 12:16 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have access to the 1851 census images for Alloa? I found the following entry for on ancestry:

Alloa, East Vennel
ED 5, page 49, household 221, line 14
Andrew Mitchell 30  head Alloa Joiner (empy 4 Men) 
Jean Mitchell 30  wife Alloa
James Mitchell 27??  son Alloa
?? Murray Mitchell 9  dau Alloa scholar
Robert?? Mitchell 8  dau Alloa scholar
Catherine Mitchell 6  dau Alloa scholar
Jean Mitchell 4  dau Alloa
Mary Mitchell 2  dau Alloa
Euphemia Miller 16  son?? Dunse, Berwickshire

Obviously some of these are mistranscribed. I'm trying to match this family up with the one I found in 1861:

Andrew Mitchell 40  head Alloa Joiner 4 Men & 2 App 
Johan Mitchell 40  wife Alloa
Jane M Mitchell 19  dau Alloa
Janet Mitchell 18  dau Alloa
Cathrine Mitchell 16  dau Alloa
Joan Mitchell 14  dau Alloa
Mary Mitchell 12  dau Alloa scholar
James Mitchell 10  son Alloa scholar
Susan Mitchell 4  dau Alloa scholar

I'd love to know what the ?? really say :-)

Many thanks
Jan

"No image available" for this one on ScotlandsPeople. You will need to find it on microfilm somewhere.
