Hi,

Had a second go at looking at the 3 Poorhouse indexes (including Glasgow) and called up another 4 volumes of poss. links.
No James Miller/Millar born around 1811 Ireland or not on record at any of the Poorhouses. Nor could I find any of his family with names and around dates provided.

Whichever poorhouse he died in it is not on record at the Mitchell. Sorry.

What info does his death certificate give?

Who was the informant?

The 1861 census transcription gives his birthplace as Glasgow

You sent me PM for someone else by mistake.

Did you get my posting and PM re search of 8 volumes of Poorhouse records I made for you at Mitchell ?

HMMMM

Bit of  mystery- if you look at the line above it lists Ireland - I think we had assumed that it was a mistake - he claims in 1851 to be Irish.
I will take a look at some of the childrens certificates for marriages etc to see if it reveals more.

I will check out Scotlands People too to see if he was really scottish - no reason to lie though???
Any ideas about how to clear this up?
