Title: Census Lookup Scotland.
Post by: Glynn65 on Thursday 23 May 24 02:06 BST (UK)

Hi, would it be possible for somebody on here to do Scottish Census lookups? for 1841-1861 please?
Any offers would be greatly appreciated.

You haven’t said where or given any names. ??

There is quite good coverage of some areas on FreeCen

Or you can look on Scotlands People

This is a link to your previous thread for John Baird.
It has been explained that you seem to be looking at the wrong person.
There is a census record detailed for your John (with a different year of birth ) and family in 1841. As he does not appear after that in the census, he either died or moved abroad.
