Hi
So my Dad was able to provide the following:
John Hogg Bell dob 25 March 1889, married Hessie Haughey 10 December 1920, Died Feb 1955 (my dad was 10 at the time and uncertain of the exact date of death but will check next time he's at the grave). 

Janet (Nettie) - was a teacher, died in her 40s

Margaret (Peggy) - married a McGregor, had one daughter Helen McGregor (never married, now deceased), lived in Crieff

thinks there was a fifth child who died in infancy.

My dad mentioned he had heard of Elliots who were butchers..... would that be a connection to yourself?

Hope this helps....

Hi

Not sure if you are still researching this but came across your post while doing a wee internet search for my grandfather John Hogg Bell.  I know he had a brother Arthur and came from Callender so I'm thinking its the same person.

John moved to Northern Ireland to manage a gas works and married Hester Haughey.  They had five sons, the youngest of which is my Dad.  The sons are Hector Patterson Bell, James Hogg Bell, John Lucas Bell, Anthony Haughey Bell, and Desmond Martin Bell. 

I'm not sure of dates or anything, but i'm sure my dad will know more if you are interested.

Hope this helps.
