The only Marion Kidd born around that time was Marion Gentleman Kidd who was the daughter of James Kidd and Jane Waugh. There is a Marion born to Isabella Lyon who was illegitimate, the father being William Gibson. I believe that Marion was adopted by Walter Kidd when he married Isabella Lyon.
Marion was born illegitimate. Her mother was Isabella Lyon and her father was William Gibson. Her birth was registered as Marion Gibson.
When Isabella and Walter Kidd married, Marion was already 6 years old.
When Marion married she gave her parents as Walter Kidd and Isabella Lyon. The same parents names were given on her death. | Kidd, Marion (I17082)

The story is told, within the family, that "Unc" a notorious black sheep of the family, had his own still, distilling illegal whisky, which he would load onto his buttermilk cart and take to Edinburgh to sell. At one time he found out the Customs men were on his trail. He disposed of the still by throwing it into one of the limestone quarry ponds. It was found by the Customs but they could not prove it belonged to "Unc".
"Unc" became a tramp and at one time James Lind Aitken and Ann Eliza Aitken found him asleep in their barn. He was in such a mess that Ann took all his clothes and burnt them. After he was given a bath and new clothes he disappeared again
The informant on the death of William Aitken was John Aitken, brother

There is some doubt about her date of birth because in the 1841 Census it shows her as 7 years of age, thus born in 1834
When she married, in 1856, she was aged 22, again born 1834.
In the 1871 Census her age is given as 35, thus born about 1836.
In the 1881 Census her age is given as 44, thus born about 1837.
When she died, in 1918, she was supposedly 79, thus born 1839.
In the "Henderson Biography" it states Jane Aitken was a "local beauty" when she married.
and "Alexander was a good worker but fond of a dram. He was employed in the Silver Mines in Torphichan (sic) and ultimately he had a small farm in that locality. The products of the farm included butter, eggs and milk. As they had to be sold in Edinburgh, they were conveyed by horse and cart a distance of about twenty miles, which was a long and weary journey in ancient times."

These notes were provided by Leslie Ditchburn, and recall some of the memories of his mother Lilian Burn as related to her daughter Jessie
Some of my fondest memories stem from my childhood and the many times I spent with my Grandmother Burn and her family; and my cousins.
Grandmother Burn was widowed in 1914, at the beginning of the 1st World War, while living in Nile St. Grandfather Burn was a distant figure of whom I recall little, although don't recall ever seeing him sit down. He died when I was six and although I have little memory of him I do recall Gran talking about hom on occasions. His early years were spent at sea and Gran told mem that every time he left for sea he would recite Robbie Burns "My love is like a red, red rose." After Grandfather died Gran took in two lodgers.
It was while my father was at sea during the 1st World War that I spent many happy times with Gran at her home in Nile ST and with it being a family home there was little spare room, consequently when I stayed there I shared a bed with Auntie Beatie. Sometimes mother would stay overnight and as there were no spare beds she would share the bed with AUntie Beatis and myself. I enjoyed that I would pretend to be asleep and listen to them talking.
One conversation I overheard was Mam and Auntie Beatie discussing two proposals of marriage that Auntie Beattie had received from two different men. The discussion ranged over the various merits of both men as Auntie Beattie tried to reach a decision as to which one to marry. She married Stan, who later became a top Union man and stood for office in the Labour Party, and I was Auntie Beatie's bridesmaid at their wedding but only because I had a pretty dress. Much of the time I stayed at Grans was spent playing with my cousins with whom I would run messages for Gran such as the time I went to Ditchburns of Villiers Street for firewood.
Grandmother Burn was not a housewife, she was a home worker for Union Flannel for whom she was a seamstress. Much like Lillian in latter years Grans house was her work place as well as her home and as such was her main source of income. I would often go with Gran to Liverpool House to collect rolls of wadding, to make quilts for the Firm, as well as other materials. Union Flannel made a range of products and so Gran would spend her days sewing anything from shirt collars to blankets and the family had to fit in around her work.
It was during this period that Grans youngest son Joseph Baxter Burn was killed in the war, she was devastated but it was only when she got a letter from the War Office with | Burn, Lilian Ethel (I1641)

They may or may not have married. When his daughter Mary was born she was registered as illegitimate. It is possible that Robert died very shortly after the birth of his daughter Mary in Jul 1888.
During the 1891 Census there was only one Robert Smith meeting the age. This Robert was married, aged 24, a Shale Miner with a wife Jane aged 22. They also had 3 children. Andrew was aged 5, Jane aged 2 and David aged 5 months | Smith, Robert (I7076)
