I am trying to find a bit more on my family
James Henderson inherited "the house property at Doune Perth" when his father James Henderson died in Glasgow 1868 age 83
I would love to know where and what this house was as it does not say in the will ...I am thinking it could be Glenhead Farm
The 1851 census has James Henderson at Glenhead farm 160 acres,
1861 census has him still there and son James Whitehead Henderson age 2 he married Margaret Whitehead in 1852
James Henderson died in 1868 age 55 in the 1871 1881 & 1891 census family are still on the farm & Margaret is now head
other siblings of James 1813-1868 moved on to Glasgow Margaret Henderson nee Whitehead died in 1901 at Glenhead James W Henderson son was witness 1912 Scottish County Directory James Henderson was still farming Glenhead. they also appear at Clarkton Farm does anyone have local knowledge about those farms
regards Lesley in Tasmania

Hello Craigsanquhar. Glenhead is roughly 1 mile east of Doune and Clarkton is just on the outskirts of the village to the West.
Their are still Hendersons around this area but wether they are related I don't know.
Will see what I can find out .
