1851 census look-up : Sharp

[Kate Riley]

Can someone please look-up the following for me in 1851 census?

I'm looking for : William Sharp probl. aged between 50-60

I don't know where he was born but it wasn't Ayrshire according to his entry in the 1841 Ayrshire census.  I'm hoping that he lived to 1851 and I can find out where he was born!

 He doesn't seem to be in Ayrshire in 1851  and his son, Joseph ends up in Glasgow so I'm hoping he's in Glasgow in the census.  He was a coal miner when he lived in Ayrshire.  On his son's marriage certificate he is said to have been a grocer - so maybe he became one when he moved to Glasgow???

He could living with : Catherine aged 50-60 born ?
Joseph aged abt 15       born in Kilmaurs, Ayrshire
Margaret aged abt 22    born in Irvine, Ayrshire

I would be interested in know where Joseph is- even if he's not with William.  He married Janet Livingston in Calton in 1862 and died in Blythswood in 1909.

Thanks!

Kate

The 1851 Index for lanarkshire (not Glasgow) has a William Sharp age 50 born in Rothesay Isle of Bute

William Sharp 50 Par/Ward 649 Dist 2 Pge 12 No. 15.

Unfortunately as its only the Index there are no other details.
