Hello,

Several possible:

James Porteous
birth: 11 Nov 1853 Edinburgh Parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian
christening: EDINBURGH PARISH, EDINBURGH, MIDLOTHIAN
parents: Robert Porteous, Veronica Dickson

James Porteous
birth: 1 Oct 1852 Edinburgh Parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian
christening: EDINBURGH PARISH, EDINBURGH, MIDLOTHIAN
parents: John Porteous, Jane Turnbull

James Porteous
birth: 5 Jan 1853 Saint Cuthberts, Edinburgh, Midlothian
christening: SAINT CUTHBERTS, EDINBURGH, MIDLOTHIAN
parents: John Porteous, Helen Stewart

James Porteous
birth: 22 Oct 1854 Saint Cuthberts, Edinburgh, Midlothian
christening: SAINT CUTHBERTS, EDINBURGH, MIDLOTHIAN
parents: Peter Porteous, Janet Graham


I can't find the marriage 1875-1876 for James & Jane ARROL/ARROLL

Jane's parents James & Jean.

Children:
John f f ?
James m f - ok
Alex
Andrew
George
Jane m m - ok
Helen f m ?
William
Robert
Mary

Naming pattern would suggest John & Helen but I need more than that. :)

James died after 1901. Jane died in 1917 at Grangemouth but I don't have a copy of the death certificate.

Thanks Barbara.

Next month probably for the next batch of credits.

At least ARROL was not EARL as it was in one census. :rolleyes:

There is a tree that has parents as John & Helen. No sign of Peter or Veronica as one of the children. Robert is too far down the list.

I'll have to get a copy of Jane's death certificate and see if James had died by 29 June 1917.

Married at 96 Regent Terrace, Glasgow according to the tree.

I have the 1901 census.
