I am trying to find out information about my 3rd Great Grandmother. Her name was Jane (or Jean) Gardner, I believe she was born in Stirlingshire in 1807. She married John Russell and had a number of children including my 2nd great Grandmother Marion Russell. I am not sure when they married but I believe later they moved to Glasgow as on the 1851 census they lived at 6 Love Loan, if this is the correct family
Any information would be much appreciated please
-
If she died from 1855 onwards - her parents names and mothers maiden name will be on her death cert

When & where was Marion born?

Hi Nessie,
Looks like the same family from 6 Love Loan in 1851 at Little Hamilton Street, Glasgow in 1841.
John Russell age 40 Coach Builder born outside census county
Jane Russell age 35 ditto
William Russel age 10 ditto
Agnes Russel age 8 ditto
Jane Russel age 6 ditto
Catherine Russel age 4 Lanarkshire
Robert Russel age 2 ditto
John Russel age 1mth ditto
Dougd McDonald age 50 Labourer born outside census county
Richard Russel age 20 Iron Moulder Journeyman ditto
David Gardner age 20 Cooper Journeyman ditto
I have copied above as per Freencen transcription using the spellings noted.
I see there is a David Gardner in the household , who could be a relative of Jane's.
Looby :)

She was born in either 1849 or 1850 in Glasgow and was the last of Jane's children
-
Which is the last census Jane appears on - you can look for a death after that date
-
Just checked and Jane was still alive in 1861 so any death will be found in the Statutory Indexes on SP

Jane is 54 so her age is consistent with an 1807 birthyear
They were living in the Anderston Registration District at that time

I am trying to find info on Peter Gardiner or Gardner born in Alloa around 1775. He married Kathaine Condie.

Best to start a new thread on the Clackmannanshire forum unless you have some definite reason to think he is related to the Gardners in this thread.
