A hard, hard time to be alive unless you had money behind you. My grandfather, born in 1911 in Commercial Rd, had 10 siblings, only he and his brother Tommy and sister Annie lived beyond 16. TB, pneumonia and whooping cough all took their toll in a 2 room flat.

I have identified 2 great aunts who were both born at 71 Rose Street in Hutchesontown although their family address was 41 Commercial Rd in Hutchesontown(where 5 other siblings were all born and my great aunts later lived). Was 71 Rose Street a hospital or where a midwife possibly lived? I discovered that 71 Rose Street was one of the places that bubonic plague broke out in August 1900. A fish hawker Mrs Bogie and her daughter fell ill with it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Monica,
Thanks for your help. John's wife's maiden name was Livingston, hence her son Livingston Turner. The only death that I can see on Scotland's People of a Turner with Mother's maiden name Chisholm is my John Turner.
Just to confuse matters, when I look for Turner deaths with the mother's maiden name, there are other Turners with the father marrying a Livingston!
Many Turner males married someone called Margaret, causing me many blind alleys. There are 3 Hugh Turners in my family tree, including my own dad(he passed away 2000). Possibly a miltary marrtiage/birth? If Thomas Turner WAS alive after his son John's death, it should be recorded somewhere....

Hi All, yes John and Margaret Turner in Brown Street in 1851 census is him. Cutler is profession of Thomas Turner(I thought that it said cutter🤔). I am aware of Thomas Turner of Sheffield famous cutlery makers. If only I could find a connection. I've tried all the permutations to find Thomas Turner and Margaret Chisholm, and no trace of John Turner's marriage or birth certificate or baptism. Your help is much appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to trace a Thomas Turner and Margaret Chisholm. They are listed as parents of John Turner(Filemaker), who died in Hutchesontown, Gorbals, in 1869(age 46). Death Certificate says place of birth, Edinburgh, Midlothian. I can't find his marriage or birth certificate, or any more details on parents Thomas or Margaret. Any help would be appreciated 👍
