Hi,

If anyone could look up Francis McIntosh, born c.1846 in Marylebone, I would be very grateful. I know in 1901 he was living at 31 Little Albany Street, Saint Pancras, London, England and was a house painter. His wife's name was Mahlah.

Thanks very much,

Amy

Have you tried searching 1911 youself?

It's free to search - and unusual names make it easy to group together households

http://www.1911census.co.uk

Details are not on the free search - they require payment

Amy Report 30 May 2010 16:29

Yes but I've had no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

I did find a Frank McIntosh born 1879 which could be his son - if anyone can bring up the details of that that might be helpful.

Thanks.

K - that could definitely be him - I've never come across that record before so I may order that to see what it says! Thanks!

Amy

Amy Report 30 May 2010 16:35

Hi - yes it is, she remarried in 1909. Thanks!

I couldn't find any record of Francis' death though.

I too haven't been able to find a birth for Francis Mcintosh. I'm wondering whether perhaps Janet/Jessie was Alexander's 2nd wife and that perhaps Francis was Janet/Jessie's son....but in saying that I think her surname was 'Robb' but I've been unable to find a birth for a Francis Robb either!!!

Amy

Amy Report 30 May 2010 22:47

Thanks for looking anyway - I've had trouble too - I found a brother John McIntosh living with Francis in one of the censuses and will order his birth certificate which might clarify their mother's name.
