Marc / Diane, You may be lucky and find that the 1851 census has been transcribed on FREECEN. Most of 1841 is up-to-date but only some of the 1851 parishes are completed. It depends on the County. Some are progressing faster thyan others in this ongoing project. http://www.freewebs.com/mmjeffery/index.htm. Link to Scottish Index is given above.

Someone else from the list might know of other resources. Diane in Texas "There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women." - Madeleine K.

Sarah Young in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire in 1828.  I believe I found them on the 1841 census in Mearns, Renfrewshire through the freecen.rootsweb.com.  I wasn't able to find Renfrewshire for 1851 census, and requesting information about the 1851 census.  Has it been transcribed?  How is it available?  I tried to look in the archives, but nearly a million (it seemed) hits showed.  Below is the family on the 1841 census.  Thanks for any help.   Best,   Marc Archer Lake Odessa, MI USA   Piece: SCT1841/571 Place: Mearns -Renfrewshire Enumeration District: 7 Civil Parish: Mearns Ecclesiastical Parish, Village or Island: - Folio: 8 Page: 6 Address: Newton ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----     Surname   First name(s)   Sex   Age   Occupation   Where Born   Remarks       TEMPLETON   Robert   M   30   Calico Print Cutter Journeyman    Unknown         Page: 8/7   TEMPLETON   Sarah   F   30       Outside Census County (1841)            TEMPLETON   Mary   F   12       Outside Census County (1841)            TEMPLETON   Robert   M   10       Renfrewshire            TEMPLETON   Thos   M   7       Outside Census County (1841)            TEMPLETON   Margaret   F   3       Outside Census County (1841)            TEMPLETON   Flora   F   1       Outside Census County (1841)       ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SCT-RENFREW-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SCT-RENFREW-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message Disclaimer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This email message has been scanned for viruses by Mimecast.
