Could someone please look at the 1871 scottish census for James McCuskey b 1821.

I have just been looking at the free searches on Scotlandspeople and found 3 James McCuskeys living in Anderston, Glasgow.

2 of them I can account for, one born c1834 and the other born c 1864 but the one born 1821 I cannot account for, just wondering if he is another one of my McCuskey's.

thank you

Maddie

Thank you Maddie,

Still no idea if he is one of mine, if he is I think he would have been born in Ireland though, but thanks once again.

I thought he would be living with the other 2 McCuskeys ,

Thank you Maddie,

Sorry but just going by the address I don't think these McCluskey's are mine.
Problem with them is there are so many different spellings.
Most of them lived in the Calton /Anderston district.
