« on: Sunday 17 July 05 22:20 BST (UK) »
Seeking information on Agnes Gaunt , nee Duncan ( 1846-1916); daughter of John Duncan and Agnes McLauchlan.  One son for sure- A.E. Gaunt. I can't find a marriage cert, or any mention of husband's information. Husband was Robert Gaunt.  Thank you.  Donna

Have a look for Agnes in the 1901 and 1891 censuses at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk, - - there's only one match of an appropriate age.

Those entries swiftly lead to the following 1881 census entry.....

Dwelling:   83 Acre St
   Census Place:   Lindley Cum Quarmby, York, England
   Source:   FHL Film 1342049     PRO Ref RG11    Piece 4392    Folio 79    Page 39
   Marr   Age   Sex   Birthplace
Agnes GAUNT   W   37    F   Rockvale Glasgow
   Rel:   Head
   Occ:   Charwoman
Alfred GAUNT       14    M   Dublin, Ireland
   Rel:   Son
   Occ:   Woolen Finisher
Dennis GAUNT       12    M   Dublin, Ireland
   Rel:   Son
   Occ:   Scholar
Alexander GAUNT       9    M   Dublin, Ireland
   Rel:   Son
   Occ:   Scholar
Elizabeth A. GAUNT       7    F   Marsden, York, England
   Rel:   Daur
   Occ:   Scholar
Charles GAUNT       6    M   Lindley, York, England
   Rel:   Son
   Occ:   Scholar
Amelia GAUNT       3    F   Lindley, York, England
   Rel:   Daur

FreeBMD has one very obvious obvious entry for Robert's death, and there's an obvious entry for Amelia's birth.

Lindley cum Quarmby is in the parish of Huddersfield ......

By tradition, the death register entry informant would have been the eldest son, Edward, which matches the info in the various census entries.

Hello: Thank you for the information. I guess I got stuck on looking for husband Robert. The Gaunt connection is a new one and I am easily frustrated.    I have spent so much money on scotlandspeople; I think I am the sole support of he website!!!  Now that I have this I will look at the other census.    Again- thank you.   Donna

Hi Donna

You should also follow up the English death and birth records, as well as the Irish birth records, - the former via the info on the FreeBMD site.
