James Campbell & Elspeth McGrigor - 1790 - Logierait

[moo]

Hello Everyone again

Still trying to track down the parents of Elizabeth and William Campbell. Since finding their father a widower in the 1851 Census, I searched for a father with the name of John Campbell, and a mother who is recorded for both of the children. I have found a possible contender being Ann Colquhoun. There was a John Campbell married to Ann in 1820 Luss, the children are both born in Luss. I am struggling to find a death for her, which would then lead me on to looking for a second marriage for John to Janet / Jean Turnball.

I'm back to the drawing board for the parents of Elizabeth and William, the Ann Colquhoun, is not the right parent, so this rules out the births I had found.

Hello there,
I also have McGrigors from Logierait in my tree, but sadly not the same dates. However, perhaps they are still related to yours.
I have Alexander McGrigor b. about 1685 in Logierait. Married Janet Reid b. about 1690, married in 1710. They had a daughter Katherine McGrigor, b. apt 29th June, 1712 in Logierait.
Might there be a connection?

Hello,
          Re: Reply 5, 1841 Census.
     Adult ages on the 1841 Census are rounded DOWN to the next number divisible by 5.
     ie. Aged 70-74 on Census day would be rounded down to age 70. Aged 75-79 on Census day would be rounded down to age 75.
     Regards,     Dod.
