Thank you for your help and so quickly.  Seems both the brothers/ fathers lost their wives and at such a young age.  Gazania

For what it is worth:  On FindMyPast, the birthplace for Alex was indexed as Montgomeryshire, Wales.  Which of course, I had discarded.  It was only when I expanded the transcription it showed:

"Birth County as transcribed as Montrose."

A trap for young  & old players.  Thanks again for your help.  Gazania
