Boyes family Dumfriesshire
« on: Friday 10 June 11 15:00 BST (UK) »
Can anyone look up the 1911 census for Dumfriesshire for Williamina/wilhemina Boyes born 1891 High Tae Lochmaben. I can find her on the 1901 census when she was  staying with John & Sarah turner a shoe maker in Dumfries and She married David John Kerr in 1917 in Dumfries. Any help would be welcome.

Hi   :)

I think she might well be wrongly indexed by SP as Bogis.  The image defintely has her as Boyes, aged 19, b. Lochmaben.  She's in Dumfries 821/8/29  boarding with the McGeorge family.
