Death Registration - William Brown Wilkie Source: 1952 Parish 485A, entry 63
On 12 April 1952, at 11 Steps Street, Stenhousemuir, Parish of Larbert, William Brown Wilkie, Ploughman, aged 78, widower of Mary Ann McGregor, son of Andrew Wilkie, Ploughman deceased and Janet Brown deceased. Cause of death - Hypochronic Anaemia, Congestive Cardiac Failure. Informant was A. Wilkie, son, of Parkhead Cottages, Falkirk

** A son, named A. Wilkie, that I cannot find a birth registration for belonging to Wm Brown Wilkie & Mary Ann McGregor, I am wondering if this individual was Andrew Wilkie born to Andrew Wilkie & Mary Sharkey in 1902. Mary Sharkey died in 1903 and Andrew Wilkie died in 1907 but was with a Janet Laing - so perhaps Wm Brown Wilkie & Mary Ann McGregor adopted or raised him as their son.

Newspaper Article: Dunfermline Journal January 30 1926 pg 5
TWO CROSSGATES PEOPLE INJURED:
Two accidents involving injuries to two persons resident in Crossgates occurred last Saturday. In the early morning while an old residenter named Andrew Wilkie, Main Street, was procedding to Inverkeithing, he was knocked down by a motor car and sustained injuries to his head. He was removed home and medically attended to.***
Another accident with more serious results occurred in the evening. Thomas Sneddon, who is employed by the Co-operative Society at Dunfermline and who resides with his parents in Dunfermline Road, was proceeding home on the top of a train car from Dunfermline, when at a part of the road, hear the West of Fife Laundry, he was struck on the head by the trolley. After medical aid had been summoned, he was removed to Dunfermline and West Fife Hospital suffering from head injuries.
****
It seems Gt Grandfather Andrew never recovered from his accident and within 2 weeks was hospitalized and died. I have been told he was walking to the Fair or Garden Fair at Inverkeithing as he was going to judge some of the competitions, but unfortunately the plan never came to fruition due to the accident.

I wonder if there were charges to the driver of the motor vehicle or was Gt Grampa in the wrong place at the wrong time. hw

Christian Paul, Widow of Robt Wilkie, Farm Servant, Burnbrae, Age 46, Died 5th January and was interred on 8th currt in the New Church Yard

Christian (Paul) Wilkie's death left all of her children parentless, and I believe none of them were married at the time of her death. Her youngest Child, David Johnston Wilkie would be approximately 8 years old. At this time, I have no idea where David went for care and loving - 8 years old seems young even in these times to be on your own.

Baptism:
It seems that Christian Paul's birth has occurred prior to the 'official' marriage date given in Parish records as Jan 31 1788 or 6 July 1788, thus explains why her birth not found on IGI or other sources, except the Old Parish Records and altho many other sources indicate this is probably our Christian Paul, I cannot state this as absolutely Fact
