- Cannot find this family on 1881 census but this info was placed on Fife website
1871 Scotland Census: Reg # 440, Line 22, Roll CSSCT1871_75, Household #70
Robert Wilkie, Head, Male, married, Age 26, Occ Yarn Bleacher
Elizabeth Mitchell, Female, Wife, Married, Age 26
Andrew Wilkie, Male, Son, Age 3
Elizabeth Wilkie, Female, Dtr, Age 7 mos
Robert & Elizabeth moved to England, London as Daughter Elizabeth married a William Ayres in 1889 ( Bride was 19 & Groom 21)
Where did Andrew go? Cannot locate him on 1881,1891 etc Scotland census Jan 2011
I have found some immigration / travel documents with a listing of Andrew Wilkie, born abt 1867 - birthplaces have been England but this could still be possible if Robt & Eliz Wilkie moved prior to 1889 - have more evidence of an Andrew Wilkie in Melbourne Australia, some Andrew Wilkies in England with similar naming patterns of relatives that match common names in our Wilkie families, but nothing conclusive enough to suggest a strong match or strong possibility.

ancestry.ca file - Auckland Ship - 1245 tons, Captain: Stevens, Surgeon Superintendant:
Sailed Glasgow 27th August 1874 - arrived Dunedin 21st November 1874
List of Passengers:
Wilkie, William D., Age 57, County Fife, Occupation Ploughman
Wilkie, Margaret, Age 55
Wilkie, Christiana, Age 21
Wilkie, William Age 16
Wilkie, Peter Age 14
Wilkie, Charles Age 12
Wilkie, Robert Age 26, County Fife, Occupation Ploughman
Wilkie, Elizabeth Age 26
Wilkie, Andrew Age 7
Wilkie, Elizabeth Age 3
Wilkie, Margaret Age 1
Certainly there seems to be a little discrepancy in the ages and birth dates as I know them, but then this did happen on passenger lists and other databases - so for the moment this checks out. I wonder, though, why Janet left earlier and was married in New Zealand, then also Son James - seems he was perhaps married there also - why did they leave earlier. I also wonder if all of these families or just some were sponsored by the govt to migrate to New Zealand????? HW Jan 2011
