Hi
Thanks to Linda for the 1891 census details my Gt grandmother Margaret does not seem to be with the family I dont know if she was married by then if so her husband was Patrick Hynes/Hynnes and she did stay in Widnes after her marriage

Elaine I cant find the marriage details could be I am looking in the wrong place??


Is there any way with the information I have James or Margaret could be found on the earlier census returns or do you think this is as far as I can go

Thanks again
Carolyn

Hi Carolyn

This looks like Margaret's marriage to Patrick - from www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Marriages 3rd Qrt 1890  
Currie   Margaret & Hynes Patrick at Prescot Vol. 8b Pg. 1189   

You can certainly work back hopefully on the lines of father James and mother Margaret Lindsay. You will need though to check the marriage entry on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk to confirm their parents' names (Scottish marriage certs. also include full details for mothers).

I have had to give up this site will not let me access even when it sends me the user/password so I will have to give up on the marriage

Fingers crossed someone will find James and Margaret on the pre 1871 census for me

Hi Carolyn

Are you having problems getting onto the site or just accessing the record?  If it's the latter, check that you have credits and that they haven't expired.  If they have, you need to buy some more and that will also reactivate the expired ones.  See
