I have been watching the goings and comings of here, in the hope that something might just pop up with my line in it. This one of ThuranX, seems interesting in that I have a Mary Campbell in my line. MY Mary Watson Campbell b/ August 1870. Lanark, daughter of Thomas Campbell a Warehouseman, b/1837 Lanark, and Beatrice McCrie b/ 1836 Lanark. (Thomas Campbell was the son of John Campbell a Bookseller and married to Janet (Jane) Liddell.) Mary Watson Campbell (she was my Grandmother) married William Baillie Hair b/1862. There is a house at Cardross.whixh I think is in .Dumbartonshire which she lived in the majority of her life called 'Tighmonadh'.. It is a beautiful old mansion,and still very much lived in ! Maybe there is a connection between yours and mine ? robbiej.....Jan W... NZ. Subject: Re: [DUNB] Campbell.Simpson Surnames : Hi ThuranX : : : I understand your frustration with finding the right six year old Mary : Campbell in the 1851 census. It took me a fair time before I sorted out my : Campbell family in Dunbartonshire. One problem I had was that they were : always moving back and forth across the Clyde between Dunbartonshire, : Renfrewshire, Ayreshire, Lanarkshire and Rothesay in Buteshire. All these : counties were just a few miles apart along the Clyde and river : transportation was inexpensive. : : Your Mary's birth is just 18 months after the Great Disruption and : birth/baptismal records in Scotland are very poor in Scotland from the Great : Disruption of early 1844 up until statuatory registration started in 1855. : There is less than a 50/50 chance that there is any record of Mary's baptism : or birth. : : Searching the 1851 and 1861 census is not as difficult as you suggest since : it is possible to narrow down the age and location of the search and most : important include the firsts name of another family member ie your : Archibald. : : If you send me your email address I will send you a 30 March 1851 entry for : Greenock of a 6 year old Mary Campbell with a father, 44 year old widower : Archibald Campbell.

Reference to 1845 - You wont get any official records in Scotland's People before 1855 because that is the date when formal registration was required, unlike for England & Wales in 1837. Its worth while however searching for death records for those born before and who might have been expected to have died on or after 1855.

It will be easier getting the marriage certificates on: www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk It will only cost you £6 and you only need to enter Henry Morgan and the date of marriage. You will probably not get the 1845 one as I guess it was an RC marriage. That may be found at the local RC church or at the Scottish Catholic Archives in Edinburgh. The registrars will charge a lot more to supply the other 2. With the remaining money you can look up the other census or birth certificates of some of the children. Jay

Hi ThurnX This is to correct the dates I gave for Scotland's Great Disruption. The various events of the Disruption took place over more than a decade decade but 18 May 1843 is generally to be "Disruption Day" when 193 of the Church of Scotland ministers marched out of the Assembly in Edinburgh in protest the practice of heritors appointing the ministers in each church instead of the individual congregations. Eventually the Free Church of Scotland with about 33% of the people created 700 new congregations throughout Scotland. These new congregations were inconsistant in maintaining BMD registers and the situation was so chaotic over the next dozen years that civil registration was established in 1855 After many transformations over the next eighty-six years the most of the presbyterian churches in Scotland were united again in 1929.
