Comments: During 1891 Henry boarded with a family called Colquhoun. He later married Martha Colquhoun, possibly his landlords sister? No record of any children appears except that his sister Elizabeth had her niece Jessie staying during the 1901 Census. Who was this niece? Could it have been her brother Henry's daughter? Henry remarried Christina Newton and settled in Broxburn, West Lothian. He was an undermanager at Duddingston shale mine.
