From at least the 1881 census until William's death in March 1911 the family lived at 23 Milton Terrace, Jamestown. Nearby, at 33 Milton Terrace, their daughter Catherine and her husband James Manson raised a family of eight until they emigrated to Western Canada in 1912.
Mary Waugh died in Dumbarton in January 1916, at the home of a relative, Bellle Brown; informant was Mary's nephew James Brown of 7 Thimble Street, Renton.
We have no idea where William and Mary may be buried.
