John Gladstone Scott was a chemist and was single when he died.    Parents do not match either

Thanks very much Rosie and Higgsy.    I will follow these up.    The Newington census shows her as Widowed.

Scotland / John Scott/Jane Ann Taylor
« on: Sunday 03 May 20 15:50 BST (UK)  »
Hi all

have hit a brick wall with the above John Scott.

Born Feb 1849, Crail, Fife.   
Parents Thomas Scott, Catherine Gay
Wife Jane Ann Taylor, born Oct 1849 also Crail.  Parents James Taylor and Christian Gay.
Married 15 Jan 1874, Crail, Fife.    Place of residence on MC and 1871 census is 54 Oxford St, Glasgow.  Shown as a shopkeeper, druggist  No trace after that

Jane Ann is in Shoregate, Crail with her mother in 1901 (widow) and dies 13 April 1904 in Stanley, Perthshire also home of her mother.    No trace between 1874 and 1901

can anyone help with the family between 1874 and 1901??

Rosie

sorry should have explained a bit better.    I was looking for an Elspeth Robson rather than Millar just in case I had the wrong family

Forfarian

he went on to marry a Mary Winifred Palmer in 1914 but they had 3 children before that, both named on BCs

Adam died 5 June 1929 44 Castlegate, Jedburgh, informant son John Robson.

Adam was quite a guy 2 partners, 2 wives and 12 children and also as many jobs.

thanks for that info.    I have the various census info.     It was only the young Elspeth that threw me.

Thanks again Creasegirl and Forfarian

he was certainly a bit of a boy.    With some the Palmer kids he even made up a marriage date and place for their BCs

Thanks Creasegirl

I was looking specifically for a Robson in case I had mixed up families.    Adam has been an absolute nightmare to research.    Wrong info on certs etc.    In 1901 census Elspeth is shown as housekeeper and yet on the 3 Robson childrens BCs she is clearly acknowledged as the mother.!
