L23,
Many, many thanks for your prompt reply.
I had searched the 1901 Census on Scotlandspeople but after your message I rechecked & had found I have entered Govan in the search criteria for some reason...so thank you for that.
I will apply for the death Cert as you suggest.
Merry Christmas,
John

Hi Isobel,
Thanks for all the information...the old devil.
I wonder if she wore him out over his last 18 months OR he got another 18 months because he married her.
I had the death of Annie Pride in 1954 from Scotlandspeople site but could not read it clearly, you have gven me the correct details!(address & Informant).
The address sounds as though it could have been the retirement home for all three of them, I wonder what went on out in the broom closet!
A very best Christmas wish for all the help you have given me,
Regards,
John,
