1871 Census Lookup - Please
« on: Wednesday 21 August 13 04:01 BST (UK) »
Hello to all  ;D

Would someone be so kind as to look up the 1871 census for;
Andrew Baxter born 1 November 1834, Plomont, Stirling
it should have his wife Elizabeth (Betsy) born 1838, Inveresk and possibly 7 children, Margaret, Robert, Lydia, Catherine, Elizabeth, William and Matthew all born Drumclair, Stirling.

I have 1861 and also 1881.

Thank you

Oooh interesting though, where is Margaret  ??? She was born 1857 so should have been with them as she didn't marry until 1874. Just realised Matthew died February 1871 so that explains why he isn't there.

 Glad it's them.  It's from FindMyPast.  I checked Anc to see if Elizabeth's surname is the same, but they don't appear

Will look for Margaret

That, again, is interesting. I have Waugh's in my tree.

Thank you. Another simple task has turned into paper everywhere  ::)

Hello,
The information that I have regarding this family is nearly identical. There may have been two Andrews born to the family. I will list them as I have them, namely
Robert  c1859 Slamannan
Lydia c1861 Slamannan
William c1863 Slamannan
Jane c1872 Slamannan
Andrew c1874 Bannockburn
Mary c1877 Cambusnethan
Agnes c1880 Cambusnethan
This information did not come from census results but as part of a large Baxter tree.
Regards,
Tom Buchanan
