1851 census lookup - Catherine McMURCHY
« on: Friday 06 September 13 03:08 BST (UK) »
1841
Piece 532 Folio 10 Page 1
Civil Parish: Southend
County: Argyllshire
ED:10
Address: Kilblaan
Surname First name(s) Sex Age Occupation Where Born Remarks   
McMURCHY Cathrine   F   50  Pauper  Unknown   
McMURCHY John    M   18  Ag Lab  Unknown   
McMURCHY Flora    F   15               Unknown

I'd like a look up please for the family in 1851. Flora arrived in Australia in 1843. Catherine arrived in 1856. John arrived sometime between 1841 census and 1856 so he may be in 1851 census.

Thanks,

Fred

Hello rosie17,

I have tried FreeCEN and they have 4.7% coverage of Argyllshire. I searched 1823 +/- 5 in all counties with phonetic search on for John and didn't find him.

I have Flora and Catherine already in shipping records that's how I know John was in Australia as of mother Catherine's arrival on 4 Sep 1856.

Regards,

Fred
