Hi all

This is a long shot but I'm stuck.

I have Hugh McEwan in the 1841 census working in Shap as a groom. He married Agnes Johnston in Shap in 1843. They moved to Bury and had children. The problem is I can't locate a birth for Hugh.

His father was named James and Hugh states he was born in Edinburgh in or circa 1822. I find him in the census data for 51,to 91 but can't find a birth place.

Thanks tons for any help all.
Cheers
Neal Shaw
