Dear Raymond, Thank you so much for offering to do lookups in the 1881 Scotland Census. My great-grandparents were married in Dunbarton in 1876 and their first 3 children were born and baptized at St. Patrick's Church, Strathleven, Dumbarton, Scotland. The last one was baptized in July 1880. I am hoping that they were still in Scotland at the time of the Census. I do know that they were in the United States in July 1882. Would you please check and see if JAMES DEENEY and MARY HARKIN are listed as living in Dumbarton in the 1881 census? Also, Mary's mother and stepfather should also be in the 1881 census. Mary's mother's name is MARGARET McILHONE (previously Harkin, maiden surname GREY). When Mary got married in 1876, they were living at 54 High Street, Dumbarton. James' father, JAMES DEENEY, could be living at 60 College Street, Dumbarton. Thank you so much for your time and trouble in trying to assist me. Sincerely, Mary Deeney Szewczyk __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
