No problems Rose,

Glad I could help.  You have to search for each name seperately though but they all give their relation to Joseph.

I get so frustrated with this stuff.  I used the link you provided, entered all the criteria you game me, including the variation in spelling, and when I hit search it comes up with 0 results.

HELP!!!!

Have tried it too - seems to work when you spell it McFadzean (no space between Mc and Fadzean)

Tanja  :)

PS. I see I made a mistake when I said daughter Jane should be 9 - sorry everyone  :P : she should be age 7 - and SHE IS!! They really look like the same family. Also John is 13 on the 1861 census but 25 in 1871 so John being 5 in 1851 also ties in.

If you enter Mcfadzean in the surname field and Gorbals in the address field you will be taken straight to the entry for Joseph and family as well as a Jean McFadzean living at number 29.

Nice find, allegs.

It's working now.  It is a GREAT find allegs.  I'll paw around tonight and try to take it further, although I suspect I won't get anywhere and will be back for more help. . . heavy sigh!!!

Rose,

From the IGI, this is possibly the marriage of Joseph and Jane.

MCFAZZIAN Joseph married LITTERICK Jane, 22 Oct 1841, Mochrum Wigtown

JAP
PS: I found this by looking up the Mochrum batch numbers on the excellent Hugh Wallis site at:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm

Then, in the IGI at:
http://www.familysearch.org
I entered the relevant batch number (M118924) in the batch box, selected British Isles as the region (nothing else), and entered Joseph in the first name box (no surname) and Jane in the spouse (forename) box (no surname).

Hi again Rose,

Another find from the IGI - a christening which seems to confirm the above!

MCFADYEAN Janet, bap 9 Nov 1851, Penninghame Wigtown, parents Joseph MCFADYEAN and Jane LITTERICK.

JAP
PS: The following might also be relevant but ...
MCFADYEN Mary, bap 25 Apr 1847, Mochrum Wigtown, parents John MCFADYEN and Jane LITTERICK.

PPS: Unfortunately the 1841 census for Mochrum is not yet online at FreeCEN but when it does come online it could be very useful.  Or you could request an 1841 lookup on the Wigtown board?

Wow.  If this is them, it is a great deal of additional information.  Is it common to have so many different spellings of the same last name? 

We now have Fadzen, McFadzean, McFazzian, McFadyen and McFadyean.  The Janet birthdate certainly fits. 

How do I verify this information and then use it to go back another generation?
