Hello Tracytats

I have looked at Dalbeth Convent censuses up to 1911 and have prints.  What is the name of the lady you are searching for.  I will look for you. 

It is 12 years since I first posted on Rootschat for Dalbeth.  I still have not traced my man Peter Cairns (hubby's grandad) but I live in hopes.  It would be great if I could help you.

Bye for now
Kath (Yorky)


Hello Kath thank you so much
I'm looking for Helen Harris born 6/3/1896 in Dundee parents Thomas Harris and Helen Welsh but there is a twist as she may have the name Helen Allan/en or Helen White or Helen Marie Antoinette Harris Allan/en she had all these names due to her mum having different men. It would be wonderful to find her on the 1911 census in dalbeth convent.
Best wishes Tracy.

Hi tracytats

The only place to search/look up the 1911 Scottish Census is on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk which is pay to view (but costs are reasonable).

You can't search by address though. The earlier censuses, you have the option to search the transcripts by address on the subscription services such as Ancestry or Find my Past.

Dalbeth Convent shows on the 1901 census with the following references:

Registration district:    Shettleston
Civil parish: Shettleston
County: Lanarkshire
Address: Dalbeth, Tollcross
ED: Convent of the Good Shepherd

You can search on SP therefore as Glasgow City and then Shettleston and then use name and ages to try to find her.

Monica


Thank you Monica.

Hi Kath

There are 417 entries showing for the Convent of the Good Shepherd at Dalbeth, Tollcross in 1901. The lion share of the entries are for inmates/school children. Can't see any entries for Cairns and variants  :-\

Might be worth you posting again details of your husband's grandfather?

Monica  :)



Sorry to jump on this post I don't know if this will work and I don't know any other way but could you tell me how to look at the census records for dalbeth convent I to would like to find my husbands grandmother on the 1911 census.

Hello Christine,
 I came across one of your photos on Queensland family tree it was a photo in an album called Addison mackie scan 114 WM Paterson I believe this photo to be of my husbands great grandfather and the photo was taken by his father who was a photographer.
It would be great if your able to say how/ if your connection to him and where you found the photo. My husbands grandfather was born out of wedlock and William didn’t marry his mother he did marry another woman a few years later called Isabella Caldwell green ( I have her photo ) before moving to the US.
Are you able to share the book you speak of on the other site please.
I wasn’t sure how to contact you on the other site as I don’t have a longin so I have messaged the contact page then I noticed it said about roots chat.
Thank you.
