1841 census lookup for James Anderson
« on: Tuesday 23 October 07 21:54 BST (UK) »
Could I please ask if anyone can find James Anderson on the 1841 census, he lived  at  68 Potter Row Edinburgh, and would have been in his forties or fifties, sorry not much to go on.

What was his occupation - any idea?  Wife's name?  Can't find one at Potter Row at the moment. :(

Hi Danone, I don't know if we both have the same James Anderson, the one I am looking for had a daughter Catherine who married Daniel Ferguson in 1834 at St.Cuthberts parish, they lived in Logieriat and Dowally Perthshire, and in 1859 moved to New Zealand. I am trying to trace Catherine's mother I know her father was James from the marriage cert and was a cowfeeder at 68 Potter Row Edinburgh. Do you think this is the same James Anderson as you are descended from?
