1851 census Closeburn
« on: Saturday 05 December 09 14:21 GMT (UK) »
Hi

looking for the following please:

William Hunter, blacksmith born around 1776. Wife Margaret born around 1781 both possibly in Closeburn
Daughters Henrietta & Jessie are aged 25 & 20 on the 1841 census so may no longer be at home.

Many thanks

Linnet

Did you look at 1861

Joseph Sharp still at same address with sons John and William but no sign of Henreietta or son Joseph or her father but of course he could have died.
