    1. [Renfrew] Bathing Quarters
    2. Hi all, Just quick question. On my excursion through the 1841 Census for Paisley I saw a note at the end of each E.D. That read, " At this season of the year many families Leave Paisley for the Bathing Quarters and it was ascertained by the enumerator that in this district here were absent on the night of the 6th of June ...." and then it went on to give the number. Where and what were the bathing Quarters? I've looked in Neilston, Abby, Paisley High, Middle, Low and Abbey Paisley Parishes truing to locate my ggg-grandparents Fleming with no luck. They were Married in Nielston, my gg-grandfather was christened in Nielston, and the family minus my ggg-grandfather was in Barrhead in 1851 (Mrs Fleming was listed as a widow) Its possible I might have missed them in the 1841 Nielston census I've got that reordered to take a second look. Different copy of the film this time. Mike
