  • Archibald hamilton porteous

    Could anyone help with tracing Archibald Hamilton Porteous ,b 1848 Wamphray , between 1861 and 1881. I have him on census`s 1861 ,Wamphray ,Dumfrieshire ,then nothing until 1881 ,Crawfordjohn ,Scotland ,still single ,teacher ,married Annie Muirhead 1891. Lots of information,parents, siblings etc . before 1861 and after 1881 ,but nothing in between for 1871.census .It maybe he emigrated and then returned ,but nothing is coming up on Ancestry .LDS.etc.
    Would be grateful for any info.
