Just for your background documents etc., her marriage to Thomas Walker looks to have been in 1917 in the Blythswood area of Glasgow. This certificate is available to view online on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk (guessing you are familiar with the site as you have worked on the Burnside line). You likely have this already, but only mention because you put down 1910 as last sighting for Bessie... ;)

Can't see anything showing for her death in Scotland so far...
