12660 There is a grave site, in Kirkliston Churchyard, for a Robert Bruce, the son of Robert Bruce, who died in 1842 Bruce, Robert (I13398)
 
12661 There is no evidence that Mary and Charles ever married, or that Mary is the mother of Violet, Charles or Edna. William and Mary did adopt Edna at a very young age. Burn, Mary Hannah (I1636)
 
12662 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."
 
Aitken, Jane (I4937)
 
12663 There is stamped on her Marriage Certificate that she divorced. In the Record of Corrected entries it states "24 Jun 1944. Decree of Divorce Pronounced. In an action at the instance of Mary McDermott or Myles, care of Grant, 58 Royston Mains Crescent, Granton, against Matthew Myles, presently a prisoner in H. M. Prison Saughton.

12666 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)
 
12667 They arrived in Quebec onborad the Cumard ship Alaunia Pankhurst, Arthur William (I7246)
 
12668 They arrived in Quebec onborad the Cumard ship Alaunia Rodway, Lily (I7247)
 
12669 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)
 
12670 They proceeded to have 4 children and then James migrated to Australia by himself, with his wife and children to follow.
Once getting set, though not settled, he sent for his wife and children.
James and family then lived in and around the Brisbane area, Mount Brisbane, Scarborough, Towoomba, Rath Pine and then Sandgate.
At Sandgate, then a separate town now a suburb of Brisbane, he owned a dairy in partnership with a Dane call Madsen, Sandgate Dairy, Bald Hills Road Sandgate.
After the family arrived he and Margaret had a daughter, Lillian Moffat Aitken.
James corresponded with his brother John who was farming at Hareburn Farm. In one letter he told of a tiny school nearby where the pupils and staff were terrified when a snake got into the school and would not leave. They called on James who promptly shot the reptile.
It was believed that James was killed in a tractor accident whilst aged in his 30's. He may have died of a heart attack. On late information just received it states he died of a brain haemorrhage.
When he died his wife was already pregnant with their daughter May. After May was born Margaret and and the children set sail back to Scotland on a troop ship. This turned out to be an epic journey, of 7 weeks, as the ship zig zagged its way across the oceans avoiding U-Boats and picking up survivors from stricken vessels.
May died of influenza, which was in pandemic proportions, either on board the ship or very soon after landing.
Margaret remarried in Scotland to John Morrison. John and James, Margaret's eldest boy, then went to the USA, with Margaret and the rest of the children following. Margaret and children arrived in the Port of New York on 1 Aug 1923. Margaret and John then provided a half brother for the children.
The whole family moved to Michigan in 1925. 
Murray, Margaret Ellen (I8310)

There appears to be some vendetta against this family by the church!!

The informant of the death of John was his son Robert Aitken 
Aitken, John (I6697)
 
12673 They were married some time after Walter was discharged from the 14th Field Artillery, serving as a Gunner and Driver, in France during WWI. He had been a Hairdresser before he signed up.
