Hi Jeff Anything's possible. It could have been that Janat Gibson was the sister of her first husband. > Hello all, > > I have found in the 1841 Census what might be a double entry for one person. Janat Carruthers (40) and Janat Gibson (40) both live at the same address. I have reason to believe that Janat Carruthers was married to a Mr. Gibson before she married John Carruthers. Mr. Gibson seems to have passed away or was other wise out of the picture by 1827 though. Would the census taker have put her in twice for this reason? Or is it more likely that there were two Janats the same age at the same address? > > Jeffery Davidson > Calgary, Canada > > > ==== DUMFRIES-GALLOWAY Mailing List ==== > %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% > DO NOT send files as Email attachments to the list. > Send them privately - person to person. > %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% > >
