Hi

Looking for
John Mclean & Agnes Corran McLean on the 1901 Census.

I have a birth certificate for their son Archibald Mclean He was born 1908 so will not be on the 1901 Census. We believe he had 3 sisters Nan, Mary & Jean. Not sure if they were older or younger than Archibald.

John Mclean is listed as a Threadmill Worker on Archibalds birth certicate.
The family lived in Paisley Renfewshire Scotland.

Any help would be much appreciated

Regards
Kinshar

Another way to check if you have the correct family would be if you knew John and Agnes's marriage date.

This would maybe establish whether they would have just one child aged 1yr or four children, the eldest being 8yrs.

Hope this helps. Best of luck.
