JOHN ADAMSON - BIRTH AND DEATH IN KINROSS PLEASE FIND

[ammma]

  JOHN ADAMSON was my great grandfather and although he was born (around 1852 and later buried in Kinross, he resided in Glasgow.  I believe it was Kinross (the town) but I am not entirely sure.  I am in Canada - a long way from Kinross.  So if a Rootschatter could find his beginning and end, I would be grateful.

Hi ammma,

Can you please provide some more details such as parents, wife, children, dates etc.

What info. do you have to say he lived in Glasgow but was buried in Kinross?

What were his connections with Kinross (the reason for him to be buried there)?

Sorry for the questions but we need to tie ends to help 

I actually live quite near there, a lovely place & quite historical!

Hello ammma,
     I have Adamsons from Kinross-shire in my tree, but, unfortunately I don't see a John.
     I wonder if this could be him?
       1881. W Bothwell St, Anderston, Glasgow, Lanarkshire.
     John Adamson  31 b Kinross, Kinross-shire. Corn Miller.
     Mary      "         29 b Campsie, Stirlingshire.
     Isabella  "           1 b Glasgow.
     David     "   1mon. b Glasgow.

       1891. Main St, Barony, Glasgow.
     John  Adamson *61 b Kinross. Corn Miller. *Think age 61 is a transcription error.
     Mary       "         38 b Campsie.
     Isabella   "         11 b Glasgow.
     David      "         10 b      "
     Margaret "           7 b      "
     Alice       "           3 b      "

     Hope this is the right John. (Mary's maiden name might be Kelly)

That looks like the correct family, Dod.  The thread that I linked to is about Mary Kelly born Campsie.
