1901 census lookup request Aberdeen, Torry, Murray
« on: Sunday 20 February 05 19:58 GMT (UK) »
I have been informed that my gr-uncle Thomas J. Murray appears in the 1901 census for Torry, Aberdeen.  I would be interested in the full details of that census entry.  He was born in about 1893 in (I believe) St. Monance, and his parents were James Thomson Murray and Margaret Gerrard Murray, both born in St. Monance.  Full script of that census entry would be very helpful to me!
Thanks.

Bit late, but since no-one else has responded, I will.

You can look up the 1901 census online for yourself at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Hi, Mo.  My computer has been out of commission for a while, but now that I have it back and was able to check my posts and replies, I want to thank you for taking the time to look up my family in the 1901 census.  The information you provided really helps me with new avenues to pursue.....I  now know where my Great Uncle Thomas was born!
Again, many thanks for your help and willingness to look up my information.
Bonnie

Researching:  Jamie, Petrie, Murray, Gerrard, Gowans, Thomson, Graham, Marr (in Aberdeen, St. Monance, and Glasgow.)

Hiya Bonnie,

I spotted a query of yours on Ele's The Gorbals, Glasgow (a place) thread.
A post on Glasgow Forum might help as some of the members on that site may not be RootsChatters.
