Hi there a big challenge with no other details but a look at the census records on Ancestry bring up the following - Although it may not be complete.

1.  William Nelson aged 54 born Campsie, Stirling - Slater.
     Elizabeth Nelson his wife born Paisley.
     Children - William, James, Jessie, Margaret all born Dunoon.
     Living at Church Street Cottage.

2.  John Nelson aged 52 born Hamilton - transcription of occupation not good but something to do with a Billiard Room. Also his daughter Elizabeth born Cardross, Dumbarton.

3.  John Nelson aged 25 - Visitor -  Born Maybole, Ayrshire. -  Baker.

Hope this helps.
