The 1891 census for Haddington recorded Charles and Margaret Haimes, both in their thirties, living at 19 High Street Haddington.

In the 1901 census Charles, a tailor, was living with his wife Margaret at 9 East Arthur Place, Edinburgh. 1 3 4


Charles married Margaret HANNAY, daughter of Hugh HANNAY and Christina CAIRNCROSS, on 16 January 1882 in Harelaw, East Lothian, Scotland.1 (Margaret HANNAY was born on 1 September 1858 in Gladsmuir parish, East Lothian, Scotland 5.)


  Marriage Notes:

The marriage took place according to the forms of the Church of Scotland. Wm. B. Turnbull, minister of Gladsmuir, was the officiating minister. Alexr. Campbell and Mary Hannay were witnesses.

Charles Haimes was a single man of 25 years of age. He was a tailor by trade and lived in Haddington. (Note: We know from other sources that his mother was deceased but the marriage certificate does not show that.)

Margaret Hannay was 24 years old and worked as a domestic servant. She was a single woman who lived at Harelaw.

The marriage was registered at Gladsmuir on 17 January 1882.
