I am seraching for Thomas Ferguson born circa 1788 son of Thomas Ferguson and Elizabeth Hutcheson in Kirkconnel Dumfrieshire.  He died in 1856, a pensioner artilleryman.  In 1851, he was living with his wife Ann 51 and sons Thomas, 29, John 22 and William 16, all labourers and born in Hamilton, Lanark. The ages also fit with the births of Thomas and John as sons of William Ferguson and Ann Frame.

He looks like the Thomas married to Ann Frame, however, her death certificate says that she was the wife of Thomas Ferguson, a teacher of English.  I suppose he could have taught English at home after he left the army, but it seems unlikley, especially if his sons were labourers.

Ann died on 11 January 1892 aged 92 a pauper, of senile debility at Springwall, Cambuslang. She was the daughter of John Frame, a joiner and Helen Scott.  Her daughter in law Helen Ferguson was the informant.

Any help with sorting out which Ann my Thomas Ferguson was married to would be much appreciated.

Thomas Ferguson who married Ann Frame was born circa 1787 in Kirkconnel Dumfiresshire the son of Thomas Ferguson, stone mason and Elizabeth Hutchison.  He joined the army, was discharged on a pension and supplmented that by teaching English in an elementary school and possibly other jobs as well.  Certificates from his children's marriages and deaths have both pensenior artilleryman and teacher.
