William Pearson - info needed from Scottish 1841 census
« on: Monday 01 October 12 11:03 BST (UK) »
I'm interested in William Pearson (b.1822 in Crambe, Yorkshire), who was recorded in Edinburgh in 1841 as a "Writer".  I'd really like an image of the entry, showing his entire household, and to know about his address.

Can anyone get this for me please?

Am also interested in the rest of his life - he studied Law in Edinburgh but then seems to have left for London in a hurry in January 1848.
