Thanks Hasta and Dathai,
You're right hasta i was always told if you get stuck with one family look at another to find family connections as you say.
I saw that record stating henrys occupation as Sexton I have seen another where he is listed as Caretaker which is basically the same just a fancy Church name for odd job man.
That is an intersting record for the Sunday school if correct that places the family still in Ireland 1879 maybe famine of 1880 pushed them to move to Scotland as they are on Census of 1881 there.
Harpers names interesting Alice possibly Deboras sister and Maria her mother although I have her mother listed as Mavis I have seen her listed as Maria and Deborah seems to have name one of her daughters Annie/Anna Maria Giltrap.
I have just been supplied another 2 siblings Margaret Giltrap B 25 Jan 1855 Dublin and John Giltrap B 18th Jan 1857. There is a Maragret Giltrap aged 56 Single on the 1911 Census as vistor age matches with above.
Cant find records of above although as previously mentioned there is a John Giltrap Stone Sculptor marriage to a Louisa Levinge.
Margaret seems to fit in other than she poses a further questions who was her mother and was Henry married to a sister of Deborah previously as per record 1854 to Margaret Harper if so did she die? if that were the case that would clear up the similarity to the to marriage records.
The pickings may at last be starting to join together
