Could this be him in 1891:

In 1901
Bank Place, Thurso

RD 41 ED 5 Page 15

Robert Gunn, 46, Hotel Keeper, b. Reay
Mary, 32, b. Tongue
Duncan A, 4, b. Wick
M Robert, 2, b. Thurso
Hugh J, 1, b. Thurso
James McKay, 24, bar attendant, b. Tongue
Ann Morrison, 19, general servant dom, b. Tongue

Think that's the censuses

A possible death for him in 1927, Thurso, aged 73 - on Scotlands People.

Iaccessed that death but it wasn't him.
Wonder where he's gone - emigrated or closer to home perhaps?

[airdlass]

found his second marriage - in Glasgow.
Married on 21/12/1894 to Mary Mackay, daughter of Hugh Mackay and Barbara Mackay. His address at time of marriage is given as Station Hotel Wick and his occupation looks like Hotel Boots!
Getting somewhere now!!

[Gadget]

There were hotel boots 

I think they were kind of porters/cleaned shoes did the fetching and carrying.

Well, apart from his death, you have most of his life

I would like to find out what happened to his children, especially from his first marriage.

Many thanks for all your help - much appreciated
