I really wonder whether the census taker got it wrong and Henry was Georgina's nephew. I found a possible in 1841 for a Henry Millard. This one does not appear on the 1851 census that I can find and doesn't seem to have died.......but I,m not too good with English records

Hi Janet, thanks any way janet, bit no sadly no connection....mark

Hello Mark,
I dont think this will be of any help to you but my husband is a John McGill and we are in Scotland. He had or has brothers, Edward, Thomas Alexander and William. His parents where Edward and Mary (nee Mitchell.
They were all born in Paisley.
i dont think so but if this is any help feel free to contact.

Ok, going through the male siblings i think we can discount William, this looks like him with his family still in Scotland.

T xx

WOW !!!
you have a surname for Georgina !!! ur a right sleuth aren`t you.

Cheers Tacey XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Mark

Hi Tracey, i understand what your saying but in the 1861 or 1871 or 1881 census, John is on his own with the only sibbling Margaret and she is listed as being his daughter ....

Now interestingly the image tells a little more than the transcript. Looks like Margaret is Hy's sibling. There is a ditto under Nephew, i think the enumerator is trying to say 'sibling' inferring the Nephew duplicate to be neice??


Tracey x

1851 England Census
about Hy McGill
Name: Hy McGill
Age: 21
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1830
Relation: Nephew
Gender: Male
Where born: London, Middlesex, England

Civil Parish: St Marylebone
Ecclesiastical parish: All Souls
County/Island: Middlesex
Country: England

Registration district: Marylebone
Sub-registration district: All Souls

John McGill 49
Georgiana McGill 48
John McGill 22
Thos McGill 19
Wm McGill 17
Hy McGill 21
Margaret McGill 10

For both parties to carry the McGill surname it's safe to assume Hy is the son of one of John McGill's male siblings. (unless it's a comlicated issue and Hy is the base child of one of john's sisters!!)

How many male siblings have you traced for John?

Who are John's parents?....can you please post some data so we can help you more.


Regards

I have located a Hy ( henry or harry !!) McGill in the 1851 Census who is listed as the nephew of John mcGill ( 1802) born in Middlesex area London in approx 1830.
I cannot find any Hy McGill in any other census or his parents, could someone possibly help me in this matter , even if it is just confirmed that he isn`t about. I would love to make the connection between Hy Mcgills dad anfd John Mcgill 1802 born in Scotland.
I do possibly have Johns other sibblings born in Edinburgh Scotland but i cant be 100% until i can find Hy dad.

Thank you ... Mark
