Thanks for info.
John and Beatrix, ( also spelled Betrix and Beatrice ) appear in 1841, 51 and 61 Censi at Allanhaugh Mill, as does the son Walter in 1851 in the same household, but same address and different household with his wife Margaret (nee Scott )in 1861.
In the Census John Hume has his birthplace as Cavers, Hawick abt 1784. There is a baptismal record for 1783 of a son baptised to the Father John Hume in Cavers ( I have copy of baptismal record ), so must be him. Therefore Walter's Grandfather was also John Hume, residing near Cavers in 1783. No more record of that John Hume yet.
Beatrix Liddel was born at Hobkirk, Rox. to Robert Liddle and Margaret Scott in 1789, therefore four years older. In 1861 Census she is recorded as 81 years old.
Hope this helps you too.
