Hi Corkette Was going through a mass of e-mail in my inbox from the Kirkcudbright list and got this info for you, hope you still need it! 1851 Census Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire, Enumeration district 10, Place: 14 Harbour Street, Creetown. Samuel Vernon, head of household, married, aged 48, Trade: a Sawyer, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Jean Vernon, wife, married, aged 47, born Wigtown, Wigtownshire. Marion Vernon, daughter, aged 11, at home, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. William Vernon, son, aged 9, at home, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Jane Vernon, daughter, aged 6, Scholar, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Alexander Vernon, son, aged 4, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Also in the 1851 Census Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire, Enumeration district 10, Place: 7 Bells Wynd, Creetown. Mary Vernon, head of household, married, aged 47, born England. Adam Vernon, son, unmarried, aged 16, Trade: Sailor, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Alexander Vernon, son, aged 13, Scholar, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. John Vernon, son, aged 10, Scholar, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Ann Vernon, daughter, aged 4, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. And in the 1851 Census Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire, Enumeration district 9, Place: 3 St John's Street, Creetown. Alexander Vernon, head of household, married, aged 32, Trade: Stonemason, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Elizabeth Vernon, wife, married, aged 20, wife of Stonemason, born Wigtown Wigtownshire. Alexander Vernon, son, aged 3, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Jannet Vernon, daughter, aged 7 months, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Probably all related, they are the only Vernons in the 1851 Kirkmabreck Census. There are only three others in all of the 1851 Census for all of Kirkcudbrightshire: Parish of Kirkcudbright, High Street, Kirkcudbright, Isabella Vernon, head of household, unmarried, aged 35, Trade: Laundress, born Creetown, Kirkcudbrightshire. Parish of Minnigaffe, Cree Bridge, household of John Walker: Mary Vernon, unmarried aged 16, General Servant, born Newton Stewart, Kirkcudbrightshire. Parish of Kelton, King Street, Castle Douglas, Jannet Vernon, daughter of Joseph Campbell, widow, aged 38, Trade: Seamstress, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. As there are so few Vernons it is likely that they will al be related somehow. Hope this helps, Regards, Erica Johnson. ----- Original Message ----- From: Corkette <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2001 6:56 PM Subject: Kirkmabreck 1851-1861 census? > HELP!!!
