Piece: SCT1851/424 Place: Dunfermline -Fife Enumeration District: 12
Civil Parish: Dunfermline Ecclesiastical Parish, Village or Island: Dunfermline

I have the census in between and David's age varies a bit.

Euphemia dau 36 Housekeeper Dunfermline

Kate Stewart sister 40 Damask weaver Dunfermline
Simon Martin boarder 21 Grocer (shopkeeper) Scotland Vainor
James Peckwill boarder 21 Grocer (shop keeper) Bollow Rougland, Lanarkshire


I can't find a baptism that fits for 1815-1822:

1 10/07/1813 STEWART DAVID ANDREW STEWART/CATHARINE AUNGUS M Dairsie /FIFE 421/ 0010 0187
2 12/12/1815 STEWART DAVID MICHAEL STEWART/KATHRINE MARSHAL M Kettle /FIFE 435/ 0030 0213
3 29/08/1818 STEWART DAVID JAMES STEWART/CHRISTIAN SHEPPARD M Tulliallan /FIFE 397/ 0010 0436
4 18/03/1821 STEWART DAVID JAMES STEWART/JANET MILLAR M Kinghorn /FIFE 439/ 0050 0009

and I can't find a death that fits. Seems David died 1891-1901 unless he is at some other address in 1901.

Another very hot day today and even with 4 case fans running (usually 2) my video card is running at about 60 C :rolleyes: I'll be here for short spells.


Spouse Elisabeth's parents - James & Elisabeth so can we get David's parents from the children's names?

Elisabeth b. 23 Aug 1816 Torryburn

Thanks Geoff.

Then it would be this one and several things don't fit:

David Christie Stewart 1897 age 76 Dunfermline ??


Kinghorn is not Dunfermline.

Alexander Milne
marriage: 30 June 1871 Dunfermline, Fife
spouse: Margaret Stewart

Alexander's mother is a Christian STEWART so Graham not from there.

Births Jun Qtr 1872
MILNE Elizabeth S. Shields 10a 811


Elizabeth Sands Graham MILNE
1873-1951
Born: Hebburn, Durham, England
Died: newcastle upon tyne


Oh damn tree author is adding middle names that don't exist. One of my pet hates. They are added to indicate a married name:

Marriages Dec Qtr 1891
Graham Alexander Newcastle T. 10b 62
Milne Elizabeth Newcastle T. 10b 62

So tracing Elizabeth is no help finding David's mother's maiden name.

Yes Geoff. That lead me up the garden path without a spade. :2fun:

Damn tree author adding a married name as a middle name.

Well, at least I found a marriage for Margaret.

The tree does not help with James born abt 1844. Curious he is the only one of 8 with no full date of birth or baptism. No trace of him in Scotland after 1881. I've not tried England yet.

James is the odd one out. This is the first:

William STEWART b. 19 Sep 1841 Dunfermline, Fife


David STEWART & Elisabeth SANDS
24 Jul 1841 Dunfermline, Fife


If the naming pattern was followed and we are not missing any children then:

William - (David's father)
James - mother's father
Elisabeth - mother's mother
Margaret - (David's mother)

The tree lists the death only for daughter Margaret (MILNE).

I can't find Mary after 1881:

1881
Civil Parish: Dunfermline
County: Fife
Address: 22 Martyns Place
David Stewart Head 59 Slater Dunfermline
Euphemia dau 26 Hosekeeper Dunfermline
Mary dau 24 Factory worker Dunfermline
Kate dau 22 Factory worker Dunfermline

I have Euphemia and Kate together in 1901, both still unmarried.
