Margaret was the child of Thomas Laidlaw and Janet Pollock. Baptised in the parish of Glasgow on the above date[1][2] She passed away about 1915. [3]
In the 1851 Scottish Census, living at 21 Duke St, Glasgow. (Why is Janet shown as "Head"? Husband Thomas supposedly emigrated to Australia in 1853. Did he move early and bring the family later (Margaret definitely married in Australia in 1871)?
In the 1841 Scottish Census, could this be the family? Living in Bishop St, Barony, Glasgow. Doubtful. Do we know if Thomas was a mason? Can't find Robert (4) or Walter (2) but there's a son Thomas (3), and it claims wife Janet was NOT born in Lanarkshire (but 1851 Census says yes she was). Maybe the whole family missed the Census.
Is this Elizabeth in the 1851 Census? The age, birthplace etc is correct. Surname Little is a possible clerical error.
