Yes. With Old Machar it wasn't much of a help, but with smaller parishes maybe?

Ooh! I know he's not yours, Caroline, but have you seen Robert Riston Campbell, age 65 in Candleriggs St 25, Glasgow St David in 1871? He is a Lome Card Cottie Marter Employing 2 Man 1 Woman & 6 Girls :shock:

Is that cool or what? Every family should have a resident Lome Card Cottie Marter :D Wish he was mine... :wink:
Regards,
Sarah

Mary and Sarah,

Sorry to hijack this post but by any chance was this Robert Reston Campbell born in Hamilton?

Hi Annette,

It gives Lanarkshire Glasgow, but if it's any help, his two sons, William Hay Campbell age 21, Commercial Clerk Manufacturer and John Campbell age 20, ditto (i.e. Commercial Clerk) Grain were living with him at the time.

Hello Annette,
This is actually Caroline's post and it has, unfortunately, already been hijacked :oops: We got a little carried away with our census searches. Sorry Caroline, but I just can't find them :( I thought I would redeem myself and find them on the new Ancestry 1881 and 1901, but they are still eluding me. Unless you think Ben might have been a prisoner in 1881 and told them he was a fish hook maker? :shock: In which case I've got your man 8)
He wouldn't have popped over to Ireland to make a few boilers, would he? :roll:
Regards,
Sarah
