I thought his mother (Eliza) and his sister Mary A Gray would be at the same address.
Eliza Gray was born in Ireland c1841, she had a daughter Mary A Gray c1863 in Port Glasgow, she then had John c1866. eliza cannot be found on the 1871 Census,she shows up on the 1881 Census where she is married to Robert Thomson living at -
6 Montgomerie St,Port Glasgow.
This woman is a mystery.

Hi Kirsty,just started on husbands tree,problems
already,can you please do an 1891 for Joseph Tollitt
1883 West Derby,have found his marriaage to Catherine Wilminton in1904 West Derby,but no birth of her any where,are you able to help at all? gill

Kirsty

Kirsty Report 10 Nov 2008 16:01

Amanda,

I have been trying to find her for you and am not having much luck!

The thing is with Ancestry you can only view the page you request for the Scottish records, where as on the English 1's you can look at the original and see the neighboughs etc. It might just be that they are there but not trancsribed properly.

I think you might be better off asking someone who can access the original Scotish records.

If I find anything I will PM you

Sorry I can't help more
