Thanks

Hi Heather

Was Santa good to you? Hope so... xmas:biggrin:

Will this site help you out?

http://www.dumgal.gov.uk/historicalindexes/census.aspx

It has a search facility for 1851 census for Dumfrieshire. So far the FreeCen doesn't have Dumfries completed yet.....and we all know that SP is holding out for a few more weeks! This site is FREE though!!

Best wishes
Jean

Hello Jean,
Santa was indeed good to me this year.
I have been going through this site piece by piece and have as yet found no sign of the family that I know is indeed there.Have to say its making me dafter than usual.
Thanks all the same.
Hope Father Christmas was equally good to you and yours.
