Understanding 1851 census extract re Benthorpe family

[Maggsie]

Hi,
I picked up Sarah Benthrop b1841 in Ireland, living in Scotland with 2 children in Shaw Street Glasgow.  This is in the 1871 Scotland Census.
The record you gave re the census application and the census in 1871 that I got, these are the only 2 records I found out of 5 sites that I searched.

Lots more about Sarah & siblings in original thread.

Sarah's death certificate says father John Bainthorpe was a soldier- perhaps he was stationed in Ireland and met wife Sarah Docherty there.

There is a birth of a John Benthorpe in 1869 in Scotland, in Tradeston , Glasgow, this is where I saw Sarah in 1871 also at that time she had a girl called Jane, she was born in 1863.

Thanks Maggsie 

The daughter of Sarah, Jane b. 1864 in Glasgow, was the origin of the searches together with her husband John. There was a big gap on her that has now been found. It is this info that has led to that 1851 census entry and notes.

Icar- what religion were the family?

Jane married husband John Hay/McClure by the forms of the Church of Scotland. Her Uncle John, brother of Sarah, married in a RC service.

Great info. from the board as I was flummoxed as to why a 1916 date was on it?

It makes sense now & we've all learned something else in the process, thanks folks for the insight
