Iam looking for my great grandfather James Gillies. He was born in Glasgow. Some papers tell me that he was born 22. April 1868, his memorandums shows that he worked as a pastry baker 1881 Dundee, 1888-1889 in Ayr, 1892 in Glasgow. He emmigrated to Cape Town in 1893. I dont find him in the scottish census`with this birthdate, so it could be wrong.

Some other papers (seamans certificate) tell that he was born about 1856 (he also worked as a baker and confectioner on ships).
