1891 census look up please
« on: Monday 31 March 08 12:46 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find a Barbara Barron in the 1891 census.

I have her in the 1871 and 1881 living with her husband Charles and children in Dyce.
In 1901 I think I have found her a widow living at 127 Auchmill Road, Newhills.  Several things tie in with birth places.  I know her husband died in 1884.  She died in 1912.  She was born c 1840

Any help with this would be great.

Betty

Sorry Jen this is not the same one.

I saw her when I was looking in the earlier censuses.

My Barbara might have a David 12 years old and Jane Ann 8 years old.  She had other children but they were of the age that they might have left home.

Thanks for your time.  It is much appreciated.

Betty,

Your Barbara seems to have gone into hiding! The only other one I can see has a husband, James, and is too young anyway for yours. The only Jane Ann Barron of the right age is in Nairn, and a niece but stated as born in Nairn.

I have tried searching Ancestry and Scotland's People with various combinations/spellings of names but with no joy.

Very sorry and good luck - hope someone else comes up with the answer soon.

Regards,

Jen

Thanks Jen for your efforts.

I think I will check Scotland's People for Jane Ann's birth to make sure the Barbara I have in the 1901 is the correct one.

Thanks again for your time.
