General Notes:
Like David, Normina Winton's son, Janet was born outside of a married relationship. Her birth certificate was registered on 13 March 1873, at Cockpen, before registrar, Peter Mitchell. No father's name was included on her birth certificate, only that of Normina Winton, her mother, who was described as being a domestic servant. However in 1881 a child named 'Janet Phillips', aged 8 years, born Bonnyrig, Cockpen, was resident with Normina Winton's mother, Helen, at Cowan's Close, in St Cuthbert's parish Edinburgh. This suggests Janet's parentage was the same as her brother David's.
The 1891 census for Newington, Edinburgh, recorded Janet Gordon Winton [sic] living with James Winton, head of the household, at 187 Causewayside Edinburgh. Janet was recorded as the granddaughter of James Winton. She was a single woman, aged 18 years, and was recorded as having been born in Edinburghshire. She was employed as a laundress.
William White died in 1929. 'Jessie White', widow of the deceased man who had been present where he died, gave notice of his death before the registrar, D. Dinnie, at Edinburgh on 10 July 1929.
Janet White died in 1943. Her death certificate recorded her as 'widow of William White glass cutter' and as aged 70 years. Her parentage was recorded as in her marriage certificate. 2 3 4
Research Notes:
SURNAME
'Gold' in Janet's name is most probably a form of the surname 'Gould', her great grandmother's name before marriage being 'Janet Gould'.
