Post by: miaow on Tuesday 16 February 10 20:53 GMT (UK)

Hi folks, I am looking for info on Robinson Dowell b c 1900. All I know is that he married my Grandmother in 1920 in Armadale, West Lothian, Scotland and died 1925 in Blackridge, West Lothian, Scotland. They had a daughter Hannah. Please help me tie up this loose end!!!

Hi miaow

I'm guessing at this entry for him from the 1901 census simply down to location - everyone showing as born in Armadale apart from father:

John Dowell 39, Coal - Miner (hewer), b. Airdrie, Lanarkshire
Agnes Dowell 34
William Dowell 13
John Dowell 11
David Dowell 9
Isabella Dowell 6
James Dowell 3
Robertson Dowell 1

Address: Marches No 8, Armadale

If you want to be a 100% certain, you would need to check his marriage or death cert to be able to confirm parents' names  :)
