Duncan McGregor bn 1832 Lanarkshire

Post by Liverbird75 » Wed Aug 26, 2015 11:28 am

I have found on the 1851 census that Duncan was living with his brother Joseph McGregor (my 3rd Gt Grand father) and wife Agnes and their Son Duncan. All the dates of Joseph, Agnes and Duncan (son) match all I have already, so for me this is a big break through :D

So, looking for any information on Duncan bn 1832. I have baptism records that show that either Duncan & Joseph's parent are John and Jane Moody, although I can't find the baptism record for Joseph, if I can I can match :)

Is this the family in question on Freecen?
Address: Forth Place

Surname First name(s) Rel Status Sex Age Occupation Where Born Remarks
MCGREGOR Joseph Head M M 36 Wood Merchant Lanarkshire - Glasgow
MCGREGOR Agnes Wife M F 25 Stirlingshire - Stirling
MCGREGOR Duncan Son - M 3 Stirlingshire - Stirling
MCGREGOR Duncan Brothr - M 19 Drapers Assistant Lanarkshire - Glasgow
STEWART Helen Servnt U F 26 House Servant Stirlingshire - St. Ninians


So where were they both in the 1841 census? were they together then too?
No obvious sign on freecen's 1841.
Quite a biggish age gap so unusual to find them together anytime well done that's a great find.

I wonder if this is Joseph in 1841 from FREECEN with his father?

There is will and inventory indexed at SP of a Duncan McGregor, Innkeeper in 1846 - definitely worth a look.

Later.......I've just realised wee Duncan isn't in the household so maybe not but I thought I'd leave it anyway.
