Hello Everyone - it's been a LONG while since I have been on the LIST. Is "Big Bill" still here? I was wondering if he ever found the following family on the 1851 census? 1841 Census: In 1841 Alexander was living in Gillholes, Kirkinner with his wife Jean, his daughter Elizabeth and his son Alexander. Piece: SCT1841/889 Place: Kirkinner-Wigtownshire Enumeration District: 2 Civil Parish: Kirkinner Ecclesiastical Parish, Village or Island: Kirkinner Folio: 2 Page: 11 Address: Gillholes MCCARMICK Alexander M 60 Hand Loom Weaver Wigtownshire MCCARMICK Jean F 50 Wigtownshire MCCARMICK Anthony M 15 Wigtownshire MCCARMICK Elizabeth F 15 Wigtownshire I was looking for them today but don't seem to be able to find them.

Thanks everyone for the information on this family. No wonder I couldn't find them in 1851. I thought I had tried all spelling variants but obviously not. It's great to see that after so long away from the LIST that it is still as great as ever.
