  • Notes 
    • Enumerated on 1851 Census as Robert Arment, Andrew's son, age 10, a scholar, born Abdonshire(?)

      Robert Arnot, Age 20, Birth abt 1841, Boarder, Male, Birthplace: Leslie, Fifeshire, Address: Queen Ann Street, Occupation Cabinet Maker.
      Robert is enumerated with the Lessills family. At this time, I have no idea whether there is a connection between Arnots & Lessills or whether it merely was a place for Robert to stay, perhaps even apprentice

      However, 5 years later, Robert dies of Tuberculosis
