There is another John Bain on the 1841 census, born and living in Midlothan, with a son Kenneth. Doesn't help when trying to eliminate possible Johns www.freecen.org.uk/search_records/5a151901f4040b9d6e24f034/kenneth-bain-1841-midlothian-leith-south-1830-?locale=en

Hi Oz

Don't worry about that  People who have posted or are following will read through all your reponses.

You can also use quotes to identify something in particular you are responding to (as you have already done above) or also use the person's name that you want to make a comment to.

You will get the hang of it all really!

Is there something on this register entry that makes you confident it is the right one for John?

As I replied yesterday:
"SP index shows 2 death records in Dalkeith – both are on the same date 26 Feb 1840.
One has John Bain aged 35, the other has John Bain aged 38. You may need to sort out why there are 2 records, and what they say."

I am confident I have correct entry for his Death. On the Death entry for Agnes (Wilson) Bain she mentioned being the Widow of John Bain. After checking the 1841 Census I only found Agnes with 3 children, William Wilson Bain is the line I am exploring. John Bain does not appear on the 1841 Census. Also John Bain was a Slater and that is mentioned on both his death record and when
 the Banns to Agnes was recorded. Thanks for your input.

Thankyou Garstonite,
Somehow I missed your information regarding Janet Bain B.1829. I have now downloaded the information. Thanks
After trawling through lots of Births and Bapts for John Bain c800-1840 I have now found his Birth Record. John Bain was born 1801 in Dalkeith Scotland. After looking again at his Death Date and now his Birth date I am convinced that I have the correct John Bain. Thankyou to all who spent their time and effort in my query.
