Thank you Robyn for the lookup. Much appreciated.

Would the relationship of David age 45 to David 78 be available on the census?

David aged 45 is listed as the head with wife Catherine,
David age 78 is listed as son occupation Mason's Labourer, I think I have his age wrong and wonder if i could be 28 not 78.  He is listed as being born in Leswalt, Wigtownshire so I assume its the son not the father
Sorry
Robyn

[waiteohman]

Thanks Robyn

It 1891 their son David is 8, so I suspect this 1901 David is 18. Original must be very difficult to read. David SR's father is Samuel so the David age 78 was perplexing. Catherine Rennie is nee (Sadler / Saddler)

Thanks for the extra details re the son.

Cheers,
Linda

Hello and good afternoon. Mary Jane Rennie born 1880, was my maternal grandmother and I remember her very well. Sarah, her sister if I recall correctly became a Murdoch and her husband was a fisherman and she lived in Stranraer. I think their brothers went to Canada. My mother was one of six children with Mary Jane being their mother. They were, Kathleen, David, Jean, Gordon, George and  Winifred my mother I  am in touch with two of my cousins, Gordon's two daughters.
Mary Jane died in Liverpool.
Hope this helps
