At the time of the 1881 census, the family was living at New Building, Scott Street, Perth West Church, Perth, Scotland. Francis was listed as an unemployed laborer. In addition to Francis and Catherine, others living at the address included their son, Joseph (mason's laborer), daughter Mary (mill worker), daughter Margaret (mill worker), and daughter Catherine (mill worker). They had one boarder, Mary Ann Michell, a mill worker, aged 24, born in Dundee. In 1891, they were living at 111 South Street, Perth, and Francis was described as a retired salesman. In his death record, Francis was described as a laborer, and in his wife's death record as a coal salesman. In the death record of his daughter, Margaret Nolan York, he is described as a "drainer."

  	1865-1866 Valuation Roll for Perth, Scotland This shows Francis Nolan living at 103 South Street, north side. Living in the same building was John Thornton, who may have been a relative. A John Thornton, born in 1840, was the son of James Thornton and Mary Nolan.
  	Westport Petit Session Records This record shows Francis Nolen, a resident of Buckwaria, as the defendant in a Petit Court Session, being tried for "eloping from his Master on the 12th Sept. 1841." "Eloping" was the term used when someone left without permission or notification, indicating that Francis Nolen was a tenant of the plaintiff, Dominick Gerraghty. There are other connections between the Nolan and Gerraghty families, so this very well may be the Francis Nolan who married Catherine Nolan.
  	Westport Petit Session Records This record shows Frank Nolan, a resident of Tavnaugh, as the defendant in a Petit Court Session, being tried for "malicious trespass on grass his property on the 29th day of May 1842" The plaintiff was the Marquis of Sligo. This record may or may not refer to this Francis Nolan.
  	Poverty Relief Loan Records Presumably, this record refers to this Francis Nolan, since he left Ireland in the mid-1840s and went to Scotland.
