Further to my previous post it would appear that the Henry Nimmo referred to was the son of Henry Nimmo and Elizabeth Wothersoon. Henry Nimmo senior can be found at Foulsykes Farm in the 1881 and 1891 census. He died in 1891 and left a will.
An article you may find of interest is in the Glasgow Herald 30 January 1895 page 9 regarding a case brought to the Court of Session entitled "Proving a Glasgow Doctor's Will",Elizabeth Wotherspoon or Nimmo widow of Henry Nimmo of Foulsykes Farm being one of those involved.
Here is a little more detail from one of the articles referred to in my previous post.
Motherwell Times 27 Jan 1911
"Henry Nimmo, horse dealer, Kinburn Lodge, Douglas Street, Hamilton, was on Tuesday examined in bankruptcy...in the course of the examination related his expereience with moneylenders .
The only money he had borrowed ,he said, was a loan he had concluded with a firm of money-lenders in Glasgow before he left Foulsykes Farm at Martinmas, 1909.The loan was for £100 and he was to pay back £160 at the rate of £10 per month... he thought he still ahd fully £20 to pay.
In October the money lenders got to know that a colliery company out Hamilton way was owing him an account of £27 or £29 for ponies,and they arrested the account and had the money paid over to them...
The examination was closed".

PS. In this instance you might also find it of interest to look at Ancestry trees for this family as actual records from SP have been attached to them.
