Kirkcudbrightshire / Re: McGeorge

I re-read the discussion, and that's a really good finding that James stated his father was called William.

But we have a William McGeorge from that area which was a mason and was not married to Esther:

I am interested in the same person as you guys. I have to say, very impressive knowledge about the naming patterns in Scottish families, had no idea about it but will now try and use it.

My wife is a descendant from James McGeorge, and I also want to find out where he came from. My question is, why did you focus specifically on Esther and William as his parents?

What I mean is, going on ancestry.co.uk, there are few possible candidates for that:

They are all from the same county, and yet different people. How can we know which one of them is our James McGeorge?

Wow, that's a really good idea! I will go to the local libraries and check it out. I can do a family tree in a word document and simply download or print-screen the censuses and add to the document. Thank you!

Looks very much like something from 1925-1926, just similar to some old pictures we have.

Hi everybody :-) I was wondering if there is a place to look at censuses for free? I used to have a few month subscription to ancestry.co.uk but when it ran out I got more questions to check, but I'm trying to find a way to find answers to my questions without having to buy a full subscription all the time.

Thank you!
