I am interested in researching my ggg grandparents. JOHN McLARTY was born ca 1812 in Campbeltown, Argyll, Scotland. He married AGNES CURRIE (or CURRY) in 1844 in Campbeltown, Argyll. AGNES CURRIE (or CURRY) was born ca 1820 in Argyll. She was the daughter of SAMUEL CURRIE and GRACE unknown. JOHN and AGNES McLarty had a son JOHN CURRIE McLARTY born ca 1844 in Argyll and a daughter ISABELLA McLARTY born ca 1848 in Argyll before coming to Victoria, Australia around 1848/49. I am quite new to genealogy and have recently subscribed to Ancestry.com but have not been able to locate this family on the 1841 Scottish census. Any help at all would be most welcome. Much of the information I have so far has come from the IGI and I realise this may not be entirely accurate. Perhaps there is someone else out there researching this McLARTY family??

Have you tried the www.freecen.org.uk for the 1841 census - many places are on there The scottish transcriptions on Ancestry are diabolical -- the folks are there but you have to be VERY lateral about potential spellings!!! Obviously www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk is the best place for scottish families but it has no graded payment scheme so it can get rather expensive. regards Jill Bowis www.benderloch.org.uk/forum - Ardchattan history, geology, ecology, genealogy, weather, webcam, local forum www.kintaline.co.uk - where we are, what we do: Kintaline Plant and Poultry Centre
