Hello Listers, Found in the 1851 census of Dalziel, Lanarkshire (district 639, enumerator's book 2); in the household of John BROWN, chemist and druggist, there was John, his wife, and one lodger, John PATERSON, unmarried, 22, Rail station Master, born Ayr, Ayrshire. Hope this helps someone. Cheers, Rosalind Paterson.
