I feel sure this is the same family in 1871 - however I cannot access the image to check what I feel are mistranscriptions.
Sorry if it looks strange but I can only put what has been recorded in the index
1871
No 33 Oriental Ter Govan Lanarkshire
Hendry McLorie Head 45 Labourer in shipyard born Ireland
Helen McLorie wife 40 born Magdale Ayrshire

If you aren't convinced try saying McCleary in a strong Scottish accent ;D

Hi Tricia and Tom,
Thanks for the information. Tricia I am convinced its the same family. I have learnt over time that not every name is spelt the same because as you say people speak different differently.

It is not the best writing, it could also be McLerie. I have the image as I have family lower down also at 33 Oriental Terrace Govan. The Image also states Parish of Bellahouston. I have not been able to find where Oriental Terrace was. Does anyone have any ideas?
