Hya Keriek, does the death cert give the name of his widow or was he a widower at the time of his death? If he was a widower then his wife died after him. If his widow is mentioned the DC then she died after his death. Who was the informant on the death cert? Was it a neighbour or one of his family. Also have you found him on the 1891 and 1901 census, this will give you an idea as to the area they lived in. Don't know if you've tried Scotlands People

It's worth a try. Gen10

Hello Gen10
Yes, i have a copy of Hew's death cert and the informant was his eldest daughter and Catherine his wife was still alive.  I am a member of SP and have checked for marriages or deaths for Catherine and her children and can find nothing after 1910.  They may have emigrated, some of my Stewart family went to NZ and are still there.  I am just checking to see if there is anyone of their eight children doing family research.
