Robert was in Stirling in 1901 - a single boarder. He had middle name Edmund according to his baptism in Leith.

If he was in the Poorhouse in 1911, might he have been listed under initials RB only?

Your right Josey,

"under" 'Robert's Bed'   ??? ;D

Anyway...

I found (age is out on this one by 10 yrs but is Edinburgh)

BLACK ROBERT E
1911
42
697/ 7/ 18
Penicuik, Midlothian

Also;

Nearest I could find if there was an error with his name maybe if he had speech problems or someone else giving info. may have got it wrong, all sorts of reasons for mis-transcriptions.

Using his age as a guide;

BAIRD
ROBERT
1911
54
485/A 6/ 17
Larbert (Stirling)

BAKER
ROBERT
1911
51
652/2 2/ 12
Coatbridge or Old Monkland (Lanark)

Robert Bach born 1858 in Scotland died in 1914 in Edinburgh. Address at death Craiglockhart Poorhouse. Residence Edinburgh Grassmarket.

RD on death is Colinton & age would have been 56 i.e. c 53 (ish) in 1911

I wonder why he ended up in Edinburgh from Stirling?

Did any of his family live in Edinburgh?

Had he been working there?

Was he a Widower?

Who was his wife, where/when did she die?

What was cause of death & who was the informant?


Josey,

My geography of Edinburgh isn't great with RD's.

I'm now doing a search in Midlothian with no surname & only initial 'R', this one has no surname on the index i.e. could this be a possible?

----- ROBERT
1911
50
685/5 31/ 8
Newington, Midlothian

Thinking if he'd been living/working in Edinburgh as a 'Boarder' the person who filled out the census form may not have known his surname or age....clutching straws now  ???

Thinking that's quite a wee distance from Colinton to Newington?

Not a huge distance, they are both south of the centre. Would be great to see original census sheet of Robert X to see his occupation.

No harm/offence meant but the people south of the border would pronounce 'bach' as 'back'  :D

Yep, the occupation is the main thing now, such a pity we can't get transcriptions for 1911  :(
