Help with 1901 census please!
« on: Wednesday 04 August 21 14:22 BST (UK) »
I have a 1911 census result for the Hendrie family, living at 50 Bank Street, Glasgow:

William - Head - 47 - Marine Engineer - Ayr
Margaret - Wife - 47 - Granton, Inverness
Elizabeth - Daughter - 19 - Plantation, Renfrew
George - Son - 16 - Glasgow
Margaret - Daughter - 12 - Paisley

My focus is Elizabeth - I found a birth certificate for an Elizabeth McGregor Hendrie dated 1888, in Govan, Glasgow. The fact that her age is quite off on this census and her marriage certificate the year later, makes me wonder if the birth cert is perhaps that of an older sister who died. I'm struggling to find the family on the 1901 census - can anyone help?

Ok that's all good. The 1911 census says 6 born/5 living. I think I've found the child that died so pretty sure now, the Elizabeth born 1888 is the one I want. Can only find 5 children born overall though  :-\

Yes they are 2 registrations of the same child. Mother Margaret's maiden name was Grant.
