Do I need to purchase credits with Scotlands People to view it?

Yes, you would need to, unfortunately, which would be annoying if it turns out not to be your man.

Oh, wait, does that mean you haven't viewed the actual image of that 1841 census to check if John Jaffrey's age is correctly transcribed?

Ah, and looking at the pilot site (FamilySearch Record Search), it shows James Jaffrey born 12 Feb 1802 Roxburgh, father John Jaffrey. It's on Scotland's People in the OPR births / baptisms, parish of Roxburgh, if you want to look at it to see what info is given (again, you would need to use credits to view it.)

FreeCEN has the 1841 entry and it shows the same ages as you have, so they're probably correct.

What would I get do you think, that you didn't get on the FSRS? As James appears to be the eldest, you would think the marriage would be easy? On FSRS I looked at 1804/5 for the twins - found William Brown Jaffrey 15/12/1805 Ednam father John and mother Ann Steel; Margaret 12/4/1805 Roxburgh father John mother Margaret Watson, but neither are twins.

You can't be sure what you will get on an OPR entry till you look at it, but some of the ones I've downloaded include father's occupation and names of godparents or witnesses with their occupations and residences.

I'm wondering if anyone can find Ellen/Helen and/or Elizabeth Jaffrey/Jeffrey on the 1851 Census please? Ellen/Helen may have died, although she would have only been in her 40s - on Elizabeth's shipping 1854 both her parents are dead. Elizabeth appears to have a farewell gift from H? Winchester from Kelso in 1854 so she was there then - Winchester may have been her minister or employer. Occupation - on 1841 Cenus at East Nisbet, Roxburghshsire, Scotland, Elizabeth is an ag lab as is her mother Ellen, on shipping she is a kitchen or dairy maid and can read and write.
