1861 Scotland census look up please - William Rae.

[margaret1]

Hi,

I'm searching for William Rae in 1861. He was born 1851 - 1853 in Kirkcudbrightshire. His father was Cunningham Rae  (from his marriage index information). I can't find a birth or baptism for him therefore am unable to determine if he was born before the 1851 census was taken.

Thank you in advance, 

Margaret.

This is looking good as it shows him with his parents in 1861! 

You see, I am trying to work out whether William is the son of Cunningham Rae and Grace Logan see my post from yesterday...

The trouble is that only six of the seven baptisms/birth records for the children of Cunningham and Grace can be found on the FamilySearch site - William is missing 

....and Kay, you found Cunningham and Grace's marriage date and place - excellent!!

Thank you so much Kay and Neale1961 for helping me.....

Margaret
