Thank you for getting back to me with that, I really appreciate it!
I thought it was a bit suspicious as I couldn't find a death certificate & wondered why he had dropped his last name to take up his mothers maiden name.  ???
So glad you managed to get further on your research.
I will pm you my email address when it lets me!  :)

Hello,
Just came across your post while taking up my research again after coming to dead end!
John Robertson is my great grandfather, Harry Carden Jones is my great great grandfather, I have been trying to find out more information on Harry Carden Jones and why my great grandfather dropped his last name to take up his mothers maiden name.
I just wondered if you found that the information Pike gave you matched up?

On the 1901 census I have for 6 Sheriff Brae it had Agnes & John, she is down as being a widow.

On the death certificate I have for Agnes Robertson it states that she is a widow of 1.Harry Carden Jones Seaman (merchant navy) 2. James Tedford
Many Thanks
 :)
