West Lothian (Linlithgowshire) / Re: Westmains Farm, Bathgate

Hello again,

I do think there may be a connection here but need to look further into what we have found so far. In the meantime, the museum is called the Bennie museum and its in Mansfield Street Bathgate. They have a website if you google it. There’s a little car park opposite but seems to be always full so we parked further down the street. The Robert we have found in our family tree was born 1883 so will have to look further into our notes to see any connection. Will be in touch when more found.

Best wishes

John

Hi, I have also been researching the Walker family name and it looks like your Robert born 1863 is a younger brother of my ancestor William who was born in 1844. Their parents were William Walker and Margaret Arthur.
We have recently been to Bathgate in our search and found the memorial stone for the family. West Main Farm as previous mentioned no longer appears to exist as a farm and we were unsuccessful in finding it.
We also visited the Beanie museum in Bathgate which had some photos of Walkers who may well be linked to us.

Do get in touch if you wish and we could exchange notes

Kindest regards
