My great grandfather, John Baxter, was born in Greenock l849, the son of John Baxter and Elisabeth nee Miller. We believe Elisabeth died soon after the birth on John (l849). On the l87l census John (l849) and his father are lodging in Greenock. John senior states he was born on Bute, but we have not been able to trace him there. We have found a lot of John Baxters born about l826, but none on Bute. Can anyone help please,
Thanks, Liz nee Baxter.
