Lanarkshire / Re: James Ferguson 1875 - 1958 (approx)
« on: Thursday 12 April 18 14:24 BST (UK) »
Having had no luck in the past trying to discover information about my Great Grandfather James Ferguson, i am hoping a fresh search may come up with some answers. My GGrandfather was born 12th Feb 1875 to James & Anne Ferguson (McDiarmid) from Brigeton in Glasgow.
My GGrandfather married Elizabeth McLaren on 18th July 1902 where they both seem to reside at 54 Fairfield Street in Govan Glasgow.
I've heard many stories of James but would love to discover what is fact and what is fiction. I know he was professional on the organ and possibly played in concert. I also have been told her studied at Cambridge and taught at Oxford. However i find him in records as a housepainter so that information has a massive question mark over it.
I aquired his picture some years ago and have been drawn to discovering more about his life ever since.
