Hello Flip,

Is this William and family in 1881?

Dwelling: 7 Shear St
Census Place: New Monkland, Lanark, Scotland
Source: FHL Film 0203696 GRO Ref Volume 651-1 EnumDist 20 Page 21
Marr Age Sex Birthplace
Wm. MITCHELL M 31 M Ireland
Rel: Head
Occ: Police Constable
Carline MITCHELL M 24 F New Monkld, Lanark, Scotland
Rel: Wife
Wm. MITCHELL U 3 M Airdrie, Lanark, Scotland
Rel: Son
Elisabeth MITCHELL U 1 F Airdrie, Lanark, Scotland
Rel: Dau


If so it looks as though his parents may have married in Ireland which is possibly why you can't find it.

Kind regards,
Annette M

Hi

Nelmut i think u may have hit it right on the head, cause i cant find a birth cert for William either,

Abraham was a police constable

there is only one Abraham Mitchell listed at Ancestry.co.uk for The Royal Irish Constabulary 1816-1921

i have used up my free trail a while ago has anybody still got theirs not being used?


many thanks

Flip

This is the information given
Abraham Mitchell Ag 19 enlisted 1842 Film 856058 Page 50

Original data: An Index To The Royal Irish Constabulary, 1816-1921. Microfilm LDS Family History Centre, 0852088-97-0856057-2069.

Presumably there may be more information on the LDS film.
