Note on Husband: Alexander FLEMING (2)

Alexander was a Wright in South Richmond St. Burial entry at St Cuthberts says he lyes 12ft W from Willsons Building. The head of grave 6ft E from Dons footstone. He died of Consumption. It seems he had to give up his trade as a Wright because of ill health and had taken up the less arduous occupation as a Lodging House keeper. After his death, his wife Marah Leslie had continued with the lodging house at 7 South Richmond St to earn a living.

 

I have a copy of his baptism record.

Note on Wife: Marah LESLIE
