Yes as I have the newspaper articles and they all say he was 21… I also have the records from ancestry and they all say 21 in 1852
His parents were James McRobert and Helen Lindsay who were both deceased by 1852

Dumfriesshire / John McRobert..bookseller..where did you go?
« on: Monday 19 December 22 17:01 GMT (UK)  »
I am currently trying to find out what happened to my 1st cousin 4x removed John McRobert. He was a bookseller born in Dumfries in 1831 and in 1852 was found guilty of setting fire to his shop. He was given 10 years transportation and sent to Stirling Castle hulk where he was till he was licensed in 1855 due to poor health . He then went to live at Auld Mills Farm at the Racks with his aunt and uncle Alexander Hutchison…I can’t find any trace of him after that and wondered if anyone is researching the same family and can shed some light on his whereabouts. Thankyou

« on: Sunday 26 December 21 18:23 GMT (UK)  »
I uploaded my DNA to Heritage from Ancestry…rubbish. In Ancestry I am 96% Scottish, 2% Irish and 2 %Welsh which stocks up with my tree and ancestors
My Heritage have me with a big fat 0% Scottish and stopped replying to me when I queried it
