Thank you all

Have you followed up the executors of Isabella's will- John Moffett, Berwick, Accountant, William James Paxton, Croydon, Draper and John Knox Weatherhead, Berwick, Solicitor. Although the other two could be her financial/legal advisors, could the William Paxton be a relative?

There is a William J Paxton on the 1891 in Croydon - 60 George Street.  Aged 61 and a Manufacturer's Agent - textiles, born Berwick on Tweed. Wife, Anne, down as a Draper. RG12/590/166/72

PS - 1881 is at RG11/813/60/18

The 1871-1891 wife,  Anne, would appear to be a second wife. First son too old to be her's.

I have found this marriage  in West Hackney, 1857-  William James Paxton, a warehouse man, Father - John Paxton, draper.

Snowing up in Amble too


The reason i asked about siblings is
My Thompson's come from Berwick and Spittal

John was born at Scremerston son of James Thompson born Hurne Roxburghshire 1833-34
I have nothing else on James other than an old family photo of 4 generations James being the eldest one on it

I have his death certificate also his wife's Martha Lountain
