• Notes

  1851 Scotland Census Janet Wilkie born abt 1847 , BurntIsland, Fife, Scotland 1851 Scotland Census; CSSCT1851_85; Household 33, Line 10, Parish 411 BurntIsland, Fife Address: Chuck Hall William Wilkie, Age 36, Head, Male, Married, Ag. Labourer, Birthplace Aberdour, Fife Margaret Wilkie, Age 32, Female, Married, Robert Wilkie, Age 6, Male Janet Wilkie, Age 4, Female **** James Wilkie, Age 2, Male Christian Wilkie, 3 mos. , Female I believe this Family to be William Dick Wilkie, Son of Robert & Christian (Paul) Wilkie - will cont. research hoping to find a death, as not on 1881 Census. These names are indicative of naming patterns in Robert & Christian 's family. In 2010, contact with relatives in Dunedin, via ancestry.ca - confirming William Dick Wilkie was Son of Robert Wilkie & Christian Paul, married to Margaret Fraser. 1861 Scotland Census;CSSSCT1861_58; Kinglassie, Fife 440, Household 66, Line 8 William Wilkie, Age 44, Head, Male, Married, Birthplace Aberdour, Fife, Ploughman, Address South Walkerton Margaret (Fraser) Wilkie, Age 43, Female, Wife, Married Janet Wilkie, Female, Age 14 **** James Wilkie, Male, Age 12 Christina Wilkie, Female, Age 10 Charlotte Wilkie, Female, Age 8 William Dick Wilkie, Male, Age 6 Peter Fraser Wilkie, Male, Age 3 Charles Wilkie, Male, Age 5 mos. Possibly in St Cuthberts Edinburgh on 1871 Census, residing with family of Thomas Robertson Janet Wilkie, born Burntisland, Fife, abt 1849, Domestic Servant, Age 22 Source: ED110, Pg 2, Line 17, Roll CSSCT1871_158; Household 8; Reg 685/1 It seems logical that Janet went with her family Wm Dick Wilkie & Margaret Fraser onto New Zealand. A Marriage is recorded in New Zealand of John Heron (Haron) Sinclair & Janet Wilkie 28 Aug 1872 Reg # 1872/7121 SINCLAIR, JANET Age 82 Years Female Date of Death 2 Sep 1928 Place of Death Last Address 23 CARGILL STREET, DUNEDIN NORTHERN CEMETERY Location Block 38. Plot 2 Date of Burial 4 Sep 1928 Type Burial Original reference:- N19280903 According to govt site, Death Reg # is: 6287 Occupation:- WIDOW Native of:- SCOTLAND Years in NZ:- 58 Place died:- DUNEDIN The following burials are also in this Plot SINCLAIR GEORGE ALEX 24 Years Burial 20 Mar 1900 SINCLAIR JOHN HARON 51 Years Burial 2 Aug 1897 SINCLAIR MARY MURRAY 40 Years Burial 15 Dec 1913 <http://www.dunedin.govt.nz/facilities/cemeteries/cemeteries_search?recordid=85491&type=Burial> This information along with family data from William Dick Wilkie & Margaret Fraser, I am saying as an educated guess, this is William Dick Wilkie & Margaret (Fraser) Wilkie's Daughter Janet Wilkie, and her family. Death states 58 years in New Zealand, thus placing emigration around 1870, but Janet was clearly in Scotland in 1871, but again the timing is very close. Other possible chn found on Free BMD Index for New Zealand are: Annie, born 1881 - Reg #5554 Dugald, born 1883 - Reg #4938 Christina born 1877, Reg # 9262 Alexander b 1880, Reg #8575 Duncan, b 1879, Reg #3564 However, the Free BMD Index doesn't state the area and merely mentions Surname of Child, given names of child, then parents names as John & Janet - so there easily could be other John & Janet Sinclairs HW Jan 2011
