Cambridgeshire / Re: Charles Holland b.c.1838 - One person or Two?

I was wondering if you had found any further information on Charles Watson Holland. I recently came upon what I believe to be his baptismal record. He is listed as Charles Watson. His father, Charles Watson and his mother Elizabeth Holland. Baptized in Bassingbourn 12 Feb 1838. You can find the record in the batch number : C109771-1 on familysearch.org.
I have also been unsuccessful in finding them in the 1851 Census, but am curious as to whether it is them in the workhouse in Bassingbourn. The mother's name is Mary Catley (b. 1816 Guilden Morden), but she has a son Charles with the last name listed as "her son" (b. 1837 Kneesworth) , Joseph Catley (b. 1838 Kneesworth) and James (b. 1843 Royston Union House). Mary is listed as married, but no husband in the workhouse with her. I have not been able to locate records for the workhouse for those years to fully explore the option that this is them.
As I had been looking for Charles' father over the years, several researchers had explained to me that his middle name was most likely his fathers last name.
Anything you have to add would be greatly appreciated.

Hi!
I am looking for Wright's and Nichol's in the Girvan area. There are a few specifically.
Archibald (B.1780) his wife Ann (nee Nichol) (B1791) and their children. Margaret (1814), Brice (1820), Jean (1827), James(1829) and Agnes (1832)
These are all the children that I believe remained in Scotland.
Ann's parent's were John Nichol and Margaret (nee Egleshom) (b1752) They were also from Girvan.
Thanks so much! CindyG
