William Kemp Watson was born in 1827  married Elisabeth Kilpatrick in 1846 and his brother Alexander Gillespie Watson born in 1838 married Janet Monroe in 1861 in Falkirk Stirlingshire.

Looking for more information on both I am sure Alexander emigrated in 1872 with Janet and their three sons Robert Ronaldson, Hugh Monroe and Alexander Gillespie Junior,

I am not sure when William and Elisabeth emigrated they had two sons born in Falkirk Robert c 1846 and William c 1850

Grateful for any information on these families
