Hi,
Good to hear from you aswell.
The dates you have for Bridget's other children all seem to be correct. Margaret the youngest was born 1915 and there was a daughter Annie who sadly died in 1903 at the age of 5 weeks.
Bridget , was the 5th eldest of Thrift Watt's 12 children (4 with 1st wife Isabella Lees and 8 with Agnes Dorian) :
Robert Watt 1855
Margaret Watt 1858 - 1871
Isobella Watt 1860 - 1945
George Watt 1864
Bridget Watt 1870 - 1951
Alexander Watt 1871
John Watt 1873
Annie Watt 1875
Agnes Watt 1876
Elspeth Watt 1879
Elizabeth Watt 1880
Mary Watt 1883
On the 1901 Census it shows Agnes, listed as granddaughter, living with her grandparents Thrift and Agnes at 15 King Street , Stonehaven, Dunnottar, Kincardineshire. But is also shows Bridget with her husband Munro and 3 children, Munro, Andrew and Mary also listed as living at 15 King street.
Was it a coincidence tha Agnes left for Canada in 1919 the year that her grandfather died?
Did Agnes ever return to Scotland to visit ?
I've attached a photo of Bridget, and I have others of your grandmother's half brothers and sisters if your'e interested.
All the best
