Kilgour 1871 Scotland 1880 New Jersey
« on: Friday 20 May 05 15:05 BST (UK) »
Found Samuel Kilgour on the 1871 census in High Church Glasgow and think I have found the same in the 1880 census for Newark, Essex New Jersey.    Is there anyway I can find out when the family left for America and how many of their children went with them.
1871...Samuel Kilgour   59
            Elizabeth (wife)  52
            Andrew  22
            Elizabeth 17
            John  9

1880    Samuel  66
            Elizabeth  62
            John  18

Thank you....... June.

Elizabeth Kigour age 17
Date of entry   4 Aug 1871
Port of Departure Glasgow, Scotland
Place of Origin Scotland
Ship Name  Anglia
Port of Arrival       New York
Line       29
Roll:       346
List #     762

and then - 

Samuel Kilgour age 56 Flesher ?
