Did the same in 1841 only 16 names and no Macintosh
must be some more pages some where as there were over 1000 name 10 years later!

You don't give up easily do you and I don't go to bed very easily either. find it difficult to give up.

Found on family search.org and on Scotlands people that John [ father to Lewis] was born at Loechil Cushnie to Lunie Macintosh and Jean Clerk .

In 1861 and 1871 Lewis wife Catherine is at West hallhead which I would take to be the same place as on your census records just spelt differently.

This intrigues me more and more as to when Lewis was born and where.

Think I will have to leave it now for tonight and get back into the search tomorrow.


Thanks again for keeping going for me.

on Scotlands people there were only 2 Lewis MacIntoshs born between 1825 and 1835 when you do not select an area. Both were born Ross and Cromarty and the other in Inverness but none have the parents John macintosh and Ann fraser.Not even the 1 from Abernethy Morayshire came up!!

Need to find them in a census record to see they exist!!

Oh where oh where does Lewis fit in??
