James Report 28 Oct 2005 20:39

Ellen, I am looking for a Bridget SHANNON on the 1881 census. She will either be in Glasgow or Dundee. She was born in Kings Co. Ireland. Bit confused about her age. Have a application for poor relief dated 1888 where her age is 59, but found here on 1891 census aged 80, so she could be listed as anything between 50-70 on 1881. Expect children Bridget 20yr & James 16yrs to be with her. Thanks in advance, Jim

Hi Ellen Thanks for the great offer, could you look for a JANET FERGUSON in the Hamilton area of Lanark, she would be a Widow and aged roughly 80-89 (died 1883 Hamilton, aged 90) thank you Carrie

Ellen Thanks for your help - you are probably right that Peter was abroad in 1881 - he did turn up later and had two more children. Elaine (also abroad)

Elaine No sign of Peter. There's only one Peter Henretty or variation, of any age, in the whole UK. He's an Irish born labourer, b. 1853, living as a boarder in Durham.

Sorry Ellen - gave you the wrong name - so many James' in the family..!!! His name was PETER HENRETTY. My mistake, however, was not in vain - I think the James Henretty you found was his brother - would you please send me what you have on him too. Thanks a million Elaine

Hi Tom Sorry, no luck with your George and Jane - anywhere in Scotland or rest of the UK. There are no Yorkshire born George Partingtons (or Janes) +/- 5 years of 1837/8 on the 1881 at all. Sorry couldn't help. Regards Ellen.
