Hi  Joe.  Thanks  for  the  reply.  The  only  one  I  did'nt  have  was  David,  1866.  Malcolm  died  1865  and  the  other  David  died  in  1917.  Can't  find  anything  on  Angus,  1867  nor  Mary  1875.  I  can't  find  any  trace  of  Angus  senior's  death,  nor  his  wife.  Their  daughter,  Margaret  was  my  Grandmother.

Hi  Joe.  Could  you  look  up  a  death  for  a  Charlotte  Johnstone  Campbell  Hamilton,  daughter  of  the  above  Margaret  Nicolson.  She  died  in  England  in   the   1980's,  I  think.  Last  known  to  be  in  Hastings.  D.O.B.  was,  25-1-1919,  Glasgow.

Thanks  Susan.

Hi  Joe.  Is  Cebo  a  surname?  What  age  is  Angus  in  1901?

Hi  Joe.  You   have  been  a  great  help.  Charlotte  was  my  dad's  sister  and  been  looking  for  her  for  18  months  now.  Not  much  info  on  my  dad's  side. Angus  was  his  uncle,  his  mum's  brother.  Take  it  he  was  single.

I  don't  suppose  there  was  a  husbands  name   for  Charlotte.

Thanks  Susan.

Hi  Joe.  Margaret  died  in  the  Jan,  1876  and  her  son  John  Nov,  1876.  I'm  sure   it  was  T.B.   that  killed  all  of  them.  John  Snr.,  died   1873  from  Consumption.

Hi  Joe.  Found  Rebecca  and  Robert  Graham's  deaths  today  at  the  records  office  here  in  Glasgow.  Rebecca  died  in  1873  and  Robert  died  in  1872.  That  means  that   Archibald  was  the  only  survivor  from  that  family.  They  were  my  Gr  Gran,  Isabella  Hamiltons'  brothers  kids.
