1881 Census Lookup pls. COULTER family

[allycat]

Hi.  I'm trying to trace records for my mother-in-law's origins in Scotland, in particular the COULTER and/or KENNEDY family.

Mary Jane COULTER born 1875 Glasgow to parents: Robert John COULTER (occupation coalminer) and Jessie KENNEDY.  No siblings known of if any.

Mary Jane COULTER would have been around 6 years old at the time of the 1881 Census, don't know where they were living only that she was definitely born Glasgow.

{Extra information:  Mary Jane COULTER was definitely married in 1897 to Andrew EADIE, a miner, born 1866 in Plean, Scotland.  The couple emigrated to New Zealand in 1926 with their 12 children.  Her death certificate says they were married at Falkirk, Scotland.  Whereas his death certificate says they were married at Camelon, Stirlingshire, Scotland.  }

All information graciously received.  Thank you, from Allycat in Australia.

Re Andrew Eadie there are 3 possibles listed in the 1881 census.
One is listed as a millworker aged 15 , one a joiners son age 16 and the third is aged 14 and is listed as "son" no occupation.

Dear Falkyrn, it would definitely be the 15 year old Andrew EADIE then.  Allycat.

Not sure if you got your reply, but Camelon is part of Falkirk.

     Mrs               Eadie                                          45

I am connected to Coulters from around that area my great grandmother was also  a Mary Coulter
