Jean Watt 1790 - ??

Jean Watt was baptised 3/10/1790 Perth to Robert Watt & Janet Hay -SP . That I have the correct baptism here is 95% from the fact that a Jean Hay Garvie was born to her in 1829

 

1811. A Jean Watt married William Garvie in Edinburgh. This odd as both were born in Perth

1812. Son Robert Garvie was baptised to William Garvie and Jean Wall 24/5/1812 Perth . This is wrong: his mother was actually Jean Watt . FS .

Other children were : William 1814, Mary 1816 & Janet 1819, Jean Hay Garvie 1829 all baptised Perth- FS. Also a James~1825 but no baptism for him on FS . As Hay has not occurred in the above Garvie parents, would expect to see Hay as a family name in Jean Watt's ancestors. And a Jean Watt was baptised to Robert Watt & Janet Hay on 3/10/1790 - almost definite though not concrete proof ! that this is our Jean Watt.

1841C. Not found. I found a Jean Garvie 10 living- as the first listed! - with a Cameron family in Blackfriars Wynd. . a George Garvie, 55, blacksmith is living 137 High Street Perth , with Bell 55, Thomas 25, William 23, George 20, John 18 & Mary 12. This is obviously not the same family but could well be a relation . No Jean Garvie born~1790 on 1841C FMP

1845/6 & 1848 William Garvie, smith is in the Perth PO Directory at Blackfriars Wynd - just south of Atholl Street-Charlotte Street

1851C. William Garvie, 64, married, blacksmith is living 72 High Street, Perth with 2 children

William Garvie 64 married . . blacksmith b.Perth
James Garvie 26 machine maker b.Perth
Jean Garvie 21 domestic duties b.Perth

If married, where is his wife Jean ? No death 1855-1861 actually in Perth - SP

He seems to die by 1861C. No dc on SP for a William Garvie 1855-1861, suggesting he died by 1854. But what about Jean Garvie/Watt?
