1891 census lookup

[Gadget]

Maybe a bit of help:

Joseph Newton, snr, died at home in Bonhill on 1st Jan 1866  2 am - accidental fall on Railway (RCE says fell on Dec 30)   

His father is recorded as William Newton, ag lab and Mary m.s. Cameron. Both deceased.

So, you'd best be looking for William Newton and Mary Cameron!

Hello Lin,

On the census 1881. John Knox, is down as the brother of the head of the house, so he is the brother of Mary Knox, who married Joseph Newton, in other words Mary Newton, age 66 years on the census i provided.

Also as i stated on my previous post this Mary Knox Newton, died 1884, age 71 years, Bonhill, Dunbarton, if you purchase this certificate from Scotlandspeople, you should get her parents names provided the person who registered he death had that information.

Regards,
Jonn.

Hi Lin

According to the censuses (see previous posts ~ 1861-1881), Mary Newton was born in Ireland, so maybe her parents married there.
