Why can't i find missing children.....

Post by Eliza » Sun Jul 09, 2006 8:55 am

On my 1881 census of my Grt. Granmothers family Conn
James Conn & Margaret NEE Lilly
Found with help may i add of people online.
All children named on the form and also found 3 sons who were not on it. But Annie Conn age 1 born Glasgow
Sarah Conn age 4 born in Govan
They cannot be found anywhere
tried all different names as i know they changed names a lot.
Any idea why these 2 cannot be found?

Hello Eliza,

If it's a birth you're lookin for then there is one of a Sarah CON in 1876 at Govan on SP.

Kind regards,

Hi Eliza,

Looking at the IGI site there are 9 children born to James and Margaret
between 1856 -1871 so it is possible that Annie and Sarah are their GRANDCHILDREN .
Cheers ,
Maureen

Annette thank you it was her So Con it is and James had signed it Con even though on every other thing it is Conn. Lots of thanks Liz
