FULTON, Isabella
- Born: 27 Sep 1865, Central District, Glasgow, Scotland 2
- Marriage (1): TWEEDLIE, Robert 1
General Notes:
Isabella's grandmother, Jane Mason Tweedly, applied for parish relief in 1879. Isabella was there recorded as aged 14 years, and working at Alexander's Mill earning 5/- a week. Her grandchildren appear to have been 'with' their grandmother, ie lodging there.
In 1880, the applicant's grandsons and granddaughters were Daniel Tweedlie (sic) aged 22 years, single, a mason but idle, address unknown. Neil Fulton was 17 years, an apprenticed slater, who had left the applicant three weeks earlier. Jane Fulton was 19 years, a weaver, in lodgings in Havannah (Street). Isabella Fulton, 14 and a half years of age, worked at Alexander's Mill with her sister, Elizabeth Fulton, who was married with three children to Andrew Farmer, a plumber, and resided in Dalmarnock Road. 3
Isabella married Robert TWEEDLIE, son of Charles TWEEDLEY and Jane MASON.1 (Robert TWEEDLIE was born about 1842 in Claybrae, Calton, Glasgow, Scotland 4.)
Marriage Notes:
"Margaret (Gordon) : married James Brebner in Towie. She was the ancestress of the present laird of Knockespock."
from Terpersie
"Margaret (Gordon), who married James Brebner, in Towie of Clatt, whose descendant became 12th laird under the entail."
from Gordon of Knockespock
"George Gordon (8th of Knockespock) was succeeded in Knockespock by his son James, the West Indian nabob, and the latter was succeeded in turn by the descendants of his sister Margaret, who married a Brebner, then by the descendants of his sister Barbara, who married a Grant, and, thirdly, again, by the descendants of his elder sister, the Brebner- Gordons, who are now known as Fellowes Gordon - a peculiarly complicated story of succession."
