1841/51 census - Perthshire
« on: Wednesday 30 March 05 15:23 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Helen FYFE b 1828 Blairingone. Perth

She married David DRYSDALE b1812 Clackmannan. Don't have date of marriage.
Their 1st child was born 1854 Kinross so assume marriage happened around this date.
Does anyone have Helen showing on 1851 or 1841 census with her family.
I have been unable to locate birth or marriage for this person so far. In fact i have never seen Blairingone mentioned anywhere else. Does it really exist?

Many thanks in advance
Regards
Amanda :)

Hi Amanda

I don't have any  census information, but hope this will help a little bit.

There is no such area as ‘Blairingone’, bur there is Blairgowrie, which is in Perthshire, Scotland.
