Hi Roy ,
Was thinking that myself actually sent you an e-mail this morning
Rosie

Hi Rosie
Just checked my emails but there is not one from you?
-
Hi Roy
Just checked it has definitely been sent and not been returned ??? PM me your address again
I don't think Charles and Margaret had a family on probate record for Charles the Wight family are mentioned I'm assuming a connection to Alexander Wight and Isabella Riddell ?

I think this is a possibility might be worth checking on SP 1911 census Charles Thomas Fare ? and a Margaret Fare in Largs Ayr
On Valuation Records Charles Thomas Ware 1905/1915 House Burnside Largs Ayr

Morning Rosie
Alexander Wight (jnr) nephew to Margaret Ware was the eldest of six children born to Alexander Wight (Snr), schoolmaster, and Isabella Connelly. On the 1901 census, the family were residing at Macmerry schoolhouse where Alexander (snr) age 42 was the schoolmaster, Isabella his wife age 33 born Kilarrow, Argyle, with Alexander (6), Isabella C (4), Peter C (3) Maggie W (1) and Mary S age 2 months. Alexander (Snr) died in 1907. In 1911, Isabella Wight (Connelly), widow, 43, at Gladsmuir schoolhouse, occupation given as Inspector of Poor, parish council. Her birthplace Bowmore, Argyle. With children named below with added details known at this time.
Alexander Wight Jnr born 1894, age 16, occupation Joiners apprentice. Would like to know more about him, where he was living at the time of Charles Ware’s probate etc
Isabella Connelly Riddell Wight 1896 – SP possible d. 1981 Alloa age 84
Peter Connelly Wight 1897-1982. Served in WW1 - Sgt Wight 9348 Tank Corps awarded MM. Married Anna Pfaff date and place unknown. They had two sons, Donald Alexander Wight b. 1930 Brentford and William John Wight b. 1934 Brentford.
Margaret Elizabeth Ware Wight 1899- SP possible d. 1984 Alloa age 73. Known as Betty. There are numerous newspaper snippets on her at MacMerry Studio, East Lothian but unfortunately, I do not have a conscription. However, I have found an interesting blog (Bathgate Old Times, on Catherine Blair, which mentions Betty Wight was her chief assistant at Glen House Studio, North Berwick. She hand-painted pottery.
Mary Stewart Wight 1901-unknown married 4 June 1923 to James Ross at St Andrews Church, Tranent
Janet Wight 1902-unknown, aka Jennie, she married Leslie Robert Coxall, catering master, Muirhead clubhouse, Gullane on 7 Sept 1943 at Innerwick church. At the time of marriage, she resided at Kennet village with her occupation State Registered Nurse – no other details.

Peter Connelly Wight 1897-1982. Served in WW1 - Sgt Wight 9348 Tank Corps awarded MM. Married Anna Pfaff date and place unknown.
London electoral registers would indicate that IF they did marry in was between 1929-30. Living alone as Wight and Pfaff in 1929, together 1930.

Info only, When Charles Thomas died in 1955, Alexander Wight was living with Jessie at 42 Little Birches, Sidcup as per Electoral register.
