Robertson and McPherson families, Scotland

[kettles.watson]

Am seeking descendants and ancestors of the following family:

William Robertson married Christina Mcpherson.  Their daughter Christina was born circa 1825.  Unfortunately I am very stuck with this line and have no idea where William and Christina were from.  I found their names on their daughter's death notice.

Christina Robertson married Andrew Watson and they had, (all born in Glasgow):

James Robertson Watson b 25 Jul 1854
Jane Robertson Watson b 13 Sep 1856
Andrew Robertson Watson b 02 Sep 1858
Christina Robertson Watson b 03 Aug 1860

Christina Robertson, spouse of Andrew Watson died 17 Aug 1860, shortly after the birth of her last child.

I don't believe Andrew remarried as the future censuses show him as a widower, and the only other adult in the dwelling being a housekeeper.

Can anyone help? Thanks!

Moderator Comment: I have moved this to Lanarkshire for now as this is where daughter Christina lived her life. We can move this later if appropriate

Hi

This is the Watson/Robertson marriage

The 1851 census shows Christina was born Glasgow - no children at that time

Thank you for that Carole,

I have managed to find a fair amount on the Watson's, but my Robertson info is scarce.

With a Glasgow birth for Christina Robertson (and variants), have you tried finding her in 1841?

Did her death certificate state if her parents were still alive?

Hi there, 

I checked Sarah's death certificate info:

Father:  William Calder, cotton weaver, deceased
Mother:  Mary Calder, ms Johnston, deceased

Hi Eileen

Your last post re the Calders, was this supposed to go on to this post? www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,610960.0.html

Hi Monica

Yes, you are right- I looked up the wrong person's death re my Robertson posts....

Should I delete and repost?

thank you
