    3. Entry on MullGenealogy - census 1861 1861 Kinlochspelvie District : 1 Page No : 12 House No : 51 Locality : No 1 Portfield 18614051 Currie Duncan 49 Head Crofter Argyll Kinlochspelvie Currie Sarah 46 Wife Argyll Kinlochspelvie Currie Mary 60 Sister Argyll Kinlochspelvie Currie Colin 13 Son Scholar Argyll Kinlochspelvie Currie Hugh 11 Son Scholar Argyll Kinlochspelvie Currie Duncan 9 Son Scholar Argyll Kinlochspelvie Currie Sarah 5 Dau Scholar Argyll Kinlochspelvie I believe Colin aged 13 should read John aged 13. John was born 24 Sep 1847. Sarah C aged 46 is Sarah McDougall and in 1841 census with her McDougall siblings at 1841 Kinlochspelvie District No : 3 Page No : 6 House No : 26 Locality : Crogan 18414062 1861 above at No3 Portfield were Sarah's siblings and No 2 Portfield had Duncan Currie's brother Hector and fam. Anyone else researching this line. Thanks for the data on the site - it is just so helpful for researching. Tricia

    3. Hi Tricia, I have just checked the original film for 1861 Kinlochspelvie which clearly shows Colin as aged 13. The strange thing is that Ancestory.co.uk shows Colin as John. I'm real puzzled as 1851 shows a John aged 3 that would fit with John being 13 in 1861. John appears in the 1871 census as 23 so the balance of probability would have it that Colin is John but what an error. Might I ask the source of John's birth. Ian
