1851/1861 Census lookup please
« on: Tuesday 11 October 05 00:01 BST (UK) »
Hi, can anyone help me find Andrew & Susan Cuthbertson?
I'm not sure when Andrew died, but Susan died (age 51) 1866 in Oswald Street, Glasgow.
Thank you,  Helen

There is only one Susan Cuthbertson listed in the 1851 index for Glasgow, aged 40 and living in St. Johns area with 5 children - no Andrew listed.

If this Susan is the one you seek I can list the childrens details for you.

One more thing Falkyrn, does the 1851 Census give marital status?  e.g. Was Susan a widow?

Unfortunately the 1851 index is very limited in what it does supply .... only the information shown - I did try a search for Andrew without any success

I'm not 100% certain but I think its is around the modern day Glasgow Cross area of the city centre and slightly east of that.
