Title: Edgar family in 1891 census
Post by: Dhayedgar on Saturday 30 July 05 19:21 BST (UK)

I have been unable to locate Edgar family in 1891 census, I have tried Scotlandspeople and  the LDS discs,
would appreciate any help in finding the Edgar family. I have the address that two children were born at before and after the 1891 census.

21 Lawn St. Paisley, Renfrew.

John Cuthbertson Edgar approx 25 yrs old
Agnes Edgar (Carson)                 24 yrs old
Agnes Cuthbertson Edgar born 1888
Jane Cuthbertson Edgar born 1891
Peter Cuthbertson Edgar born 1892
I am trying to find where the parents were born, have also tried also 1901 census, with no luck

Thanks for any help
