1881 Census Lookup; HOPKIN, ROBERTSON
« on: Saturday 18 July 09 18:46 BST (UK) »
I was wondering if sks could do a lookup in the 1881 Scotland census, Ayrshire ...  :)

I would like to find the children of Robert and Helen HOPKIN in 1881; Mary HOPKIN b. 1870, Alexander HOPKIN b. 1872, and Robert HOPKIN 1874. By 1881 Robert was deceased and Helen (b. 1850) had remarried William ROBERTSON.

Any help in finding these children would be greatly appreciated.

Genealogically yours,
Alison
