Liff area - 1841 Census Lookup -THOMSON
« on: Tuesday 26 July 05 15:46 BST (UK) »
Regards all

I am looking for a brother and sister and parents.

Helen Thomson  she would be about 25 on the 1841 Census. 
David Thomson he would be about 30 on the 1841 Census. 

I know that Helen was baptised in Liff Forfarshire in 1815.  Further I believe their parents were William and Abigail Thomson but...have not found the proof yet.

Can anybody lend a hand?  I'd so appreciate the help on this one.

Thanks
LUV

HI again GEN10

Been there, done that - I have had limited success with Free Cen, it seems everybody I am looking for has not been transcribed yet!

My David marries in 1845 so he was in all probability single in 1841. 

He is a Quarrier in 1845 but I looked at Free Cen and could not find anybody that fit him.

His sister Helen was a spinster her entire life and again, on the Free Cen, I could not find any that would be her, she went on to be the Matron at the Prison in Paisley Renfrewshire.

thanks for the help, I appreciate the effort
