1841 Census Falkland
« on: Saturday 28 August 10 12:43 BST (UK) »
Kia ora
Would any kind person be able to check the 1841 Census for Falkland please?
George Bruce aged 80
Hellen Bruce 45
Thomas (seems to be a slightly different surname - Brace?) 40
Margaret (Brace?) 15
George 11
William 11
I'd like to find out if there is anything more about George seniors birthplace other then just Fife (well the others too if there's anything there). George junior's age isn't quite right, unless he's the son of another member of the family come to stay with grandad.
Also need to check out the two different surnames.
Many thanks in advance.
Lane, Burgess: Cheshire. Finney, Rogers, Gilman:Derbys
Cochran, Nicol, Paton, Bruce:Scotland. Bertolle:London
Bainbridge, Christman, Jeffs: Staffs

the 1841 census does not give detailed places of birth - just born in county - yes or no.

SP has George Bruce - others surnames ditto.  (would not worry if mistranscribed  somewhere - it was very common).  ages were rounded if over 15. william given as 4 on SP.

also no relationships given!!
