  • Notes 
    • NOTE 1./ Ceres Parish, Fife, Scotland:

      POPULATION.
      In 1755, the population was 2540
      1793 2320
      1811 2407
      1821 2840
      1831 2762
      Number of families in the parish, 606
      chiefly employed in agriculture 183
      trade, manufactures, or handicraft 281

      Since 1831, there has been a great increase in the number of the people ; and, from the accounts of their establishments, which were lately given in by the several manufacturers in the parish, we are authorized to say, that the population must now be about 3000 at least. In 1793, 138 looms are said to have been employed in the parish. From 700 to 900 of the inhabitants are now employed in weaving and winding. From 170 to 200 are employed regularly in the mills; and, with the exception of about 30, who are employed in the lime-works, the greater part which remains of the working population is agricultural. The town of Cupar is so near to Ceres, that there are few shopkeepers or venders of any commodities in the latter place.

      The population of all of Ceres Parish in 1755 was 2540.
      EXPLANATION OF JohnorWilliam reference: JohnorWilliam were both the given names in the LDS shown as married to Mary Donaldson on the same date of 12 MAR 1756, in Ceres, Fife. The same family members names are also given. There is a typo, but no research has weighed the correct given name of Mary Donaldson to be John or William or even John William.
      OUTCOME: with such a small population of 2540 in Ceres, Fife in 1755, the probability of JohnorWilliam and Henry Millie being married just 2 years apart and thus being in the brotherly age range, is quite high, but not proven.
