Helen,
Thank you very much, that's the right person. It is a strange name, that's why I chose him to look up as the others are more common and probably more difficult to find.

Many thanks,

Sandra

Yes...and where have you been hiding away...??
Aulay ...."Mc" Aulay"........
You certainly pick them...!!!!

Helen

Helen Report 2 Feb 2010 10:58

Can't see him in the following census.

Marriage for parents ?

Auley McLeod and Ann Shedden
27th February 1848
Barony, Lanark

Looked for a death on Scotlandspeople ... nothing coming up with the christian name ... Auley.

Could be an old name from one of the islands.

Well how about "Aulay MacCauley"..now that would cause some confusion...please dont say he doesnt belong to you...!!

For ref:

Barbara McLeod...(19yrs..1881 Census) married Archie Millar 19 June 1888...18 Nicholson St.
Robert McLeod...(20yrs...1871 Census)...was a sailmaker and Died at Sea 1 April 1880.

Erin, thank you for the info.
So far I haven't came across a Aulay McAulay BUT,,,, anything's possible in my family.

Is there any chance of finding Archibald and Barbara in 1891 and 1901 census to look for children, please?

Sandra....Will see if I can find out anything relating to Barbara and Archie...in the meantime...have found this...wonder if these are the parents of Aulay Snr. (husband of Ann)

Elizabeth Thompson wife of Aulay McLeod died 22 March 1851 aged 81 years.22 Hamiliton Street.

1851 Census should show them....

Go Miss Marple!!!!!! I bet it is, I can't see too many people being called Aulay, as Helen said, it's a strange name.
Erin, you're great, loads of thanks to you.

Sandra...I think its the way it has been written...certainly the "Macleod" is the Highlands and Islands ....but transcription can vary with spelling...the childrens names seem to follow through..
