AGES

When considering the years of birth of this couple, it should be remembered that people in pre-literate societies are said not to have the same concept of precise age, as each year passes, as people in societies where literacy and bureaucracy have greater influence.

No medical personnel attended Rosie.

Her son in law, George, (surname signed looks like 'Hughkie'), of Motherwell, parish of Dalziel, gave notice of her death before Ninian Moffat, registrar, at Hamilton on 13 October 1863. 1
