Bridget Mcmillan
in the 1901 Scotland Census
Name: Bridget Mcmillan
Age: 63
Estimated birth year: abt 1838
Relationship: Head
Gender: Female
Where born: Ireland
Registration Number: 644/1
Registration district: Bridgeton
Civil Parish: Glasgow Bridgeton
County: Lanarkshire
Address: 231 Main St
ED: 38
Household schedule number: 139
Line: 12
Roll: CSSCT1901_265
Household Members:
Name Age
Bridget Mcmillan 63
William Mcmillan 29 - Ireland
Hugh Mcmillan 25 - Glasgow [yes, I know he was actually born Ireland ]


Father Hugh's death, possibly, although age is a few years out, compared with the censuses:

MCMULLAN
HUGH
53
1899
644/1 530
Bridgeton


The 1904 death for Bridget Killen posted by RG will be the correct one.
As is the case with Scottish deaths, she's listed under both her maiden and married surnames, where known:

MCMILLAN
BRIDGET
59
1904
644/1 1085
Bridgeton

The family seem to have changed from McMullen to the more Scottish-sounding McMillan, at some point between 1891 and 1901. (Maybe between 1899 and 1901, if that's Hugh's death above.)

Have you checked out these deaths please? Remember Scottish deaths name the parents if the informant knows the details.
