I would be grateful for any census information on the following family:
Susanna Reilly Wood born 1826 at Slamannan daughter of William Wood and Mary Main.
Susanna married John Robertson in 1847 at Slamannan and they had at least 4 children born at Slamannan:
Mary Main Robertson b1847 Margaret Hastie Robertson b1850 Susanna Robertson b1853 Jessie Robertson b1855
Susanna Reilly Wood died in 1867 at Slamannan, so what I am trying to find out is whether she had any other children and also what happened to the children.

1851 Blinkbony Row, Slamannan, Stirlingshire
John Robertson Head 30 Shoemaker b. Slamannan Susan Wood Wife 23 b. Slamannan Mary M. Robertson Dau. 3 ditto Margt. Robertson Dau. 1 ditto Arde Robertson Lodger 22 Shoemaker b. Donliton, Lanark Janet Williams Servant 12
1861 Blinkbonnie, Slamannan
John Robertson Head 40 Shoemaker emp. 2 men b. Slamannan Susanna Robertson Wife 34 ditto Mary M. Robertson Dau. 13 ditto Margaret H. Robertson Dau. 11 ditto Jessie Robertson Dau. 5 ditto + 2 lodgers
1871 Bank Street, Slamannan
John Robertson Head Wdr. 48 Shoemaker emp. 1 man Jessie Robertson Dau. 15
So, it looks as if dau. Susanna had died by 1861 and no further children were born. I couldn't find Mary and Margaret in 1871 so both could have well married by then.

Hi Andrew,
I found the folllowing in the pre-1855 (East Stirlingshire) MI book for Slamannan Churchyard. I don't know whether the stones are still there or legible.
(Stone is described as an obelisk)
William Wood died at Glen (dilrigg) 21.8.1842 aged 54 His wife Mary Main died 28.5 185(1 or 7) Stone erected by friends in Slamannan & Falkirk
According to the book, there is another stone next to this one and the description/inscription is as follows:
(Flat Stone under bush)
William Wood of Townhead & Mosscastle . . . . gds . . . . . . . James Wood . . . . Susanna Alison . . . . . James . . . . son of James & Susanna Weir
