My recollection was that Alf and Betty, as they were known to me, lived in Glasgow. Possibly in Springburn. I recently found a photo of Alfred senior in an army uniform from WW1. I'll dig it out and attach it here when I get the chance.
Is it possible that there's a bit of confusion here? I was under the impression that Alfred and Elizabeth who married in 1899, had a son called Alfred who was born in Newlands parish and that the family lived at Goldie's Mill near Romanno Bridge for a time. In the census of 1901, it notes that Elizabeth was living with her mother there and her son Alfred H Wilkinson, then aged 8.
In an earlier post in this subject I said I had met Alf. I assume it was the younger Alf I had met but I'll do some checking on this.
looking for information on father and mother of alfred wilkinson, born circa 1869, place unknown, (father john wilkinson, mother mary burkett), Alfred's marriage to elizabeth henderson was at Castle craig lodge, newlands in 1890, certificate shows him as a veterinary student and his father as a farmer (deceased). His address at that time was 99 Broughton street edinburgh.
It looks as if elizabeth had a sister mary jane henderson who was married the same day to James Milne welsh.
Marriage cert attached.
Can anyone help
