Hi
Iam the G,G, Grandson of Robert Newton Scott & Martha McBride (the parents of Daniel McBride Scott). The mention of Kimberley S.A is most likely South Africa as Robert Newton Scott's brothers were Wesleyan Missionarie there. George Scott Railton, the first Lieutenant of the Salvation Army was their cousin. My G,G,G,Grandfather Reverend George Scott DD was posted to Sweden from 1831-1842, were my G.G,Grandfather was born on the  12 August 1834 in Stockholm. I have prints of George Soott im younger years and later years taken from books that I have collected.

Hi
Came across your listings today on Daniel McBride Scott and Alice Eleanor Upton (married 16 December Temora NSW). I have searched for many years trying to find their deaths.  This what I have on Daniel's parents: Martha's McBride's parents were married on Friday the 27 June 1828 at Dundonald County Ayrshire Scotland. Two siblings of Martha's have been traced, William Dues, born c1832 Irving Ayrshire Scotland. William migrated to Australia as an unassisted passenger on the Sailing ship ELEUTHERIA which left Glasgow Scotland on the 1st August 1853 and arrived in the port of Melbourne on the 5th January 1854 with 23 fellow passengers.No further information could be found on William. Daniel born c1838,Irving Ayrshire Scotland, never married. On his death certificate it stated that he was in New Zealand for 20 years and then 9 years in Victoria. he died in South Preston Victoria on Tuesday 14 October 1884 and buried at the Coburg Cemetery Victoria the following day.
Martha had four children to Andrew Thorburn whom she married at Daylesford on 28 November 1876 after being informed of Robert Newton Scott death in June 1875. The children were Thomas 1865, Martha 1866, Andrew 1869 and Samuel 1872. Martha had registered the births of the three youngest children under Roberts name. It appears that Robert had left Martha before their son Samuel's drowning in 1865, possibly in pursuit of pastoral teachings overseas.
