2 - In the 1841 census a Robert Urrie (sic) is living with his wife Margret Urrie and their children Janet, William and Margaret. In the 1851 census Robert Urie is living with Mary Urie and with them are William Urie aged 12 and Margaret Urie aged 10 and little Robert Urie aged 10months and then in the 1861 census William and his sister Margaret Urie have left the home.

Robert married Elizabeth Mary "Eliza" Niven on 1 Oct 1891 in Shettlestone, Lanarkshire, Scotland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

The 2nd child of Robert & Mary is Jane born 1853 in Gourock Renfrewshire and she appears as their daughter in the 1871 census aged 8 years. I haven't been able to find the OPR of her birth. I think she must have died early as she does not apear on any other census.
