Robert was in Stirling in 1901 - a single boarder. He had middle name Edmund according to his baptism in Leith.

If he was in the Poorhouse in 1911, might he have been listed under initials RB only?

thanks Josey you are right re 1901. I never thought of him being recorded as RB! IN POORHOUSE OR WHEREVER HE WAS.

i HAVE HIS DEATH CERTIFICATE BUT NOBODY IN eDINBURGH CAN TELL ME WHERE HE IS BURIED.

I don't know whether you can look for an address on 1911 census on SP, or browse images within an address.

And you can't even try unless you pay out  >:(

ADDED: From
http://www.workhouses.org.uk/Edinburgh/
it appears that the Poorhouse records are held here:
Edinburgh City Archives, Level 1, City Chambers, 253 High Street, Edinburgh EH1 1YJ
As it's over 100 years you  may be able to find his admission record. ..

Also possibly he was in a Stirling Poorhouse

No Josey, you can't search with an address unless it's the Valuation Rolls.

Josey

I checked the valuation rolls for where he lived either side of his death using address on death cert.

It is listed as a lodging house.
