Very odd - I see  on the IGI that William Storie and Janet Hay were married in 1842  :-\

Have you got them separately on the 1841?

Freecen http://www.freecen.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Will show them in Torphicen RD 671  ED  3 Page 4

William is shown as aged 23 and there are two Janet Hays in the household - aged 47 and 14. William is a Male Servant, so I don't know about the shoemaker*** one on the 1851 and 1861  :-\


Do you have any children for them that could be followed up?

Children showing on the IGI:

William - 1843
John - 1845
James - 1848
Robert - 1851 (also a bpt in 1850, so probably the first one died)

all b. Torphicen


I'll try with some of these names.

Hi

What I have found is that William died in 1891, Armadale, aged 71, married to Janet Hay. His parents are given as William Storie, shoemaker and Janet, m.s. Forrester , both deseased. Son Robet was the informant.

So the two entries that I first found in the 1851 and 1861 were William's parents  :D
