Robert Wilkie, Age 38 yrs, Male, Ethnicity Scotch, Port of Departure: Glasgow Scotland; Port of Arrival New York, NY on ship Caledonia.
Robert states his birth location as Logie Perthshire, Occupation - Coal miner
Final Destination: Turtle Creek Pennsylvania
Arrival Date: 16 September 1912
Next of Kin: 'his Wife' Mary Wilkie of 8 Burgh Rd Cowdenbeath.
I believe this Mary Wilkie to be Marion Wilkie as Robert & Marion Wilkie's Son - David Wilkie WWI military file, 8 Burgh Road is mentioned as well as 14 Burgh Rd - Cowdenbeaths
Robert Wilkie's birth location seems to vary - Census - Logie, Sterling; Logie Clackmannshire; Beath Fife
According to Gazateer of Scotland by Rev John Wilson 1-888265-07-8, there is a Logie in the Parishes of Sterling, Clackmannanshire and Perthshire with acres in all of these 'shires'. The Ochil hills are in Clackmannanshire thus it seems 'not wrong' to state Robert's birth place within these boundaries.

Scottish
Port of Departure: Glasgow, Scotland
Port of Arrival: New York, New York on 02 November 1919
Ship: Columbia
Reason or person to see: "going to join friend John Miller of 395 Salineville, Ohio
Further info from this List - Robert names his Wife as Mrs Marion Wilkie of 14 Boro Rd* (?Burgh) Cowdenbeath. His Final destination as Salineville Ohio; Robert stated he was previously in USA 1912-1915.
As I know (from above) Robert arrived first on 16 Sep 1912, I have not found a list with his departure back to Scotland in 1915 - would that have been due to WWI issues; was he forced to return to Scotland or were there family issues???

This death event needs more research - as there are numerous Robert Wilkie's in Ohio & Pennsylvania. The fact that Marion states she is a Widow in 1940, Son David is with her - I presumed the death of 1926 was Marion's husband; but perhaps not; perhaps Robt & Marion divorced and he went on to other things. Newspaper clipping in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania - stating 103 age Robert - fighting for his rights - family Sons & Dtrs arguing in court as to his $200,000 estate - he was a construction builder by trade and the Robert I am seeking was a coal miner!!!!
