Thank you Catherine... The Fife connection could add up.

So far I know nothing about him, prior to WWI. His army discharge papers refer to BroughtyFerry and I have a few old pics with a BroughtyFerry photographers stamp on them. I'm afraid I don't have any other papers of his.... Yet!

I'll dig around through that info.

Thanks again.

Do you not have one of his marriage certs.?

EDIT: Scotlands people shows marriage to Catherine Bainbridge took place in 1929. I don't have any credits so can't view the record but maybe someone else could, or you could buy a copy of the cert.

Hi

Sorry

Had to go and help my daughter with her study work.

William was from Mary Jane's 1st marriage to John Lockerbie - they were married in 1885.

Mary Jane and Charles were married in 1899, Portobello, Edinburgh.

William was born on 19 July 1889 @ 1:30am, in which looks like Inch St, Dumfries.

Have had spare credits so looked them up.

Hi

There is also a tree on Ancestory.com which has Charles and Ann (Watson) in it.

It has ancestors upwards for both Charles and Ann.

Worth taking a look.

Guys, this is so awesome. I completely hadn't expected a response anything like this. Thank you all so much.

The information on the Lockerbie connection was so much more than I had dreamt of being available. I must confess... wet eyes time when I saw that.

I knew there was a second marriage somewhere back and the Kilpatrick surname came in thru' a StepFather. It was to retain the memory of the Lockerbie name that my Mum chose it as middle names for my me and my brother.
