Can I please request a lookup for Patrick age abt 40 and Mary McGilley with children James age abt 10 and Patrick a few years younger probably abt 3.
They were living in Dumbarton in 1858.

Thanks Joe
Yes Mary Gallagher is mother.  They came to Australia sometime in 1860s but I didn't think it was before 1861 but if not there then maybe they were already here or on the way at that time.  Would you have a record of them in 1851? I don't have birth for James though so not sure if he was born before or after 1851 census.
Thanks, Carmel

hi pal

mary gallacher married patrick macgillies 15/9/1848

do you think that's yours?

Yes Joe
That is them so they should be somewhere in 1851 census. They were married in Bonhill and Mary Ann was born 1856 in Bonhill so possibly there in 1851 but we haven't found under spellings we've thought of.
Thanks, Carmel
