Hi Beckey,
I had a check on the IGI and all children to Robert BERTRAM and Jane RATTRAY were born in Lauder, Berwickshire. However, none of the boys were named Robert!  There was a John in 1858 though - do you think he may have been registered as one name, but later used another?

Hi Beckey and Hume
Son Robert looks to have been born c. 1854, probably why he doesn't necessarily show on IGI. From the 1861 Census:
Robert Bertram 30, gardener, b. Edinburgh
Jane Bertram 33, wife, b. Cathy Toll, Selkirkshire
Alexander Bertram 8, Blainslie, Roxburghshire
Robert Bertram 7, b. Blainslie, Roxburghshire
James Bertram 5, Chapel, Berwickshire
Barbara Bertram 4, Chapel, Berwickshire
John Bertram 1, Chapel, Berwickshire
Janet Bertram 1 Month, Chapel, Berwickshire
Jim Ken 23, servant
Jane Bertram 39, servant, b. Tirulin, Dumfries
Address: Chapel, Lauder

Thank you both,
According to the 1881 census he was born about 1855 Blainslie ?,Berwick, had a look on the map North of Melrose.
Father Robert died after marriage of Robert and Ann, Jane before, the reason for looking, he was witness to his grandfather in Law's James Wait death in 1880.
Parents of Ann, John Scott Wait and Ann White (1st wife)

From Genuki at www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/ROX/Melrose/blainslie.html
"BLAINSLEE, a village in the north-east extremity of the parish of Melrose, Roxburghshire. It stands on the right bank of the Leader, 3 miles south-south-east of Lauder, on the road thence to St Boswells." from the Imperial Gazetteer of Scotland, edited by John Marius Wilson, 1868.

Hi Barry
Maybe some clues from the censuses:
1891:
Robert Bertram 36, carder, b. Blainslie
Ann Bertram 36, b. Galashiels
John S W Bertram 3, b. Galashiels - maybe the JW Bertram who reported father's death?
Jane Bertram 1, b. Galashiels
Address: 56 Stirling St, Galashiels
1901:
Robert Bertram 45, wool carder
Ann Bertram 40
John P Bertram 13
Jane Bertram 11
Margaret Bertram 6
Address: 56 Stirling St, Galashiels
