Virtually none for 1861. There is only one John HUME, Linen Weaver at Little Belmont St, South Parish Aberdeen in 1841, living with George GEORGESON. He is shown as 35 which [only] implies a birth year of 1802-1806. For 1851 there isn't one with a reasonably close age in the whole of Aberdeenshire, including Tyrie. Margaret Ann Patton, born 1868, is unlikely to be on the 1841 or 51 Census so I assume this is a typo. There is one Margaret PATON in the 1841 at Quay, south Parish Aberdeen aged 10, so born around 1831. No likely one shows up in 1851. If you are a member of ANESFHS, they have indexes for 1851 and 1861 which they would look up for you. -- Best wishes Ray ********************************************************** >From Ray Hennessy Forenames website: www.whatsinaname.net Preferred Email address: ray@whatsinaname.net Hints for Scotland's People at http://bit.ly/WIAN-SCP **********************************************************

Sorry for the typo, that should have been Mary Ann PATTON b c 1828 (not 1868) Fossoway in the 1851 Census Also John Alexander HUME was a Minister so could have been anywhere in the 1841 and 1851 censuses in Scotland but thei marriage took place in Piitsligo in 1852 so I am assuming they were both in the county in 1851.
