That is William Quiggan Greenlaw. Williams wife Agnes was born in 1805 and this was her second marriage. William and Agnes' daughter Ellanor (1845) is my 3x great grandmother.

I was wondering if anyone could do an 1841 census look up please. I am looking for William Greenlaw who was born around 1795 in St Bees, Cumberland. He married Jane Quiggin on 14/12/1814.

William and Jane had at least 4 children. The eldest was William Quiggan Greenlaw who was born around 1815, The second was Elizabeth Greenlaw who was christened 24/1/1817 in Whitehaven, The third was John Greenlaw who was christened 12/12/1818 in Whitehaven and the Fourth was James Greenlaw who was christened 4/9/1820 in Whitehaven.

Can anyone find William Greenlaw?
