[Rosinish]

Forgot to add, the possibles will all need checked out on census' for PoB etc. but I don't have enough time for now so they're only to save others from duplicating effort!

I can't find a marriage for a Grace Waters(t)on with surname Johnston or Hutcheson

Did you try Grizel and variants?

[Rosinish]

Forfarian,

Yes as I used only letter 'G' to cover all spellings to cover Grace/Grizzel/Grisal or any other combination but actually maybe not on that particular marriage as I was pretty tired by then 

Annie

Added....I do know I used only 'Jo' & 'Hu' to cover Jonson & Hucheson

So there was a Jean/Jane 1840 also?

John Haddon, 94 (Haddow I presume)
Catherine Waterston, 55
Jean Waterston, 21
Mary Waterston, 16

JANE Waterston likely married Peter STRACHAN 10 October 1862, Hamilton, Lanark
+ another possible;
MARY Waterstone* to John SHIELDS 0 December 1864   High Church, Glasgow, Lanark

Will see if 1871 Census matches pob for Jane Strachan and Mary Shields.

[trish1120]

1901 Census
Peter Strachan, 69, Head, Mar, Shoemaker, born Hamilton
JANE Strachan, 60, Wife, Mar, born Hamilton**** (1841)
William Strachan, 20, Son
Andrew Marshall, 31, Son in Law
Catherine Marshall, 29, Daug
Andrew Marshall, 7, Grandson

Not sure about the 1864 Marriage as cant find a Mary Shields c 1845 Hamilton with a Husband John.

[Rosinish]

Trish,

I was sticking with one name at a time rather than confuse myself or others & I couldn't find a marriage for Grace in England/Wales although I haven't searched any census' other than 1881 in Scotland & of course you have the 1871.

Thank you all so far........

Annie - Catherine Waterston's death was registered by her son-in-law Peter Strachan (he's my great great grandfather) he lived at 16 Church Street, Hamilton at the time of her death.

Alexander I don't have a death certificate for him however have been told by family members his death was on 26 July 1862 in Hamilton.

John Waterston married Helen Gordon Russell - he served in the military and met her in Edinburgh where they settled and had a family.
