Thanks Gadget ... good to have you on-board too  ;)

Some good pointers there.  Looks as if I'll be going to Edinburgh sooner rather than later now!

Can I assume this is a typo ... for 1910 Glaisnock Street, Old Cumnock, Ayrshire read 1901?

I've been thinking the family may have come over from Ireland - Lavery has an Irish "ring" to it from what I can recall.

If I can find the deaths of James and Mary they may give me a better idea, given they were before May 1924.

Family surnames being researched ...
Crawford, Neilson, Lindsay, Reekie, Davidson
Drummond, Laing, Pearson, Tulloch ... will do for starters but there's a whole lot more!

Yes - sorry -  1901

Worth doing some checks after 3 pm today.

Have you looked at the Irish records:

Hi Gadget

Yes, very briefly, but I have no real dates to work with for them to be of much help.

Given  Martha Law was a witness, have you considered this as an outside possible:

1910
1901
Glaisnock Street, Old Cumnock, Ayrshire
William Smith, 41, coalminer, b. Dalry ... and 8 boarders including ...

Hi again Gadget

I've just had a look at that Census on Ancestry.  All 8 "Boarders" from what appears three families and all aged between 4 and 11.

Makes you wonder why William and Annie had them all as well as a 3 year old of their own  :o

But that's another story ...  :-\

If not on the Irish 1901, then the Ayrshire one looks  a possible. Maybe look for Margaret (Maggie) in England  while we wait for 3 pm!

Added - rivetter - so would be Barrow or Tyneside or....
