Enumerated on the 1851 Census, at Aberdour as Andrew Arment, Andrew's son,age 6 , born Cupar,Fife

Birth certificate of Andrew Arnot 1875 in Edinburgh, Marriage of Andrew Arnot, Mason Journeyman & Annie Arnot, MS Cowan is stated as 11 September 1872, New Jersey, USA
How did this couple get to New Jersey in 1872 and married there??

Actual text: FATHER
Andrew Arnot
Born: July 28, 1847
Died: April 11, 1899

Dates seems to be a problem to Andrew Arnot, as uncertain as accuracy for his birth date; then accuracy as to where the marriage occurred, 1871 or 1872, Scotland vs USA and finally the grave marker states Death as 11 April 1899 but the Missouri Death records say 11 April 1900 and Andrew was not enumerated on the 1900 census taken June 13 1900.

Notes from Annie (Arnot) Gilbert regarding her Mother Annie Cowan
"Family history of Ann Cowan by her daughter, Annie Gilbert; Ann Cowan born Aug 10 1849 in Forfar, Forfarshire, Scotland; second Daughter to John & Margaret Cowan. There were five children in the family: Margaret, Ann, Eliza, Willie & John.
The Father owned and operated a grocery store. He was a thrifty Scot, and had a nice business. One morning he left home to go to the store but he never reach (ed) his destination. He disappeared entirely. No trace of his whereabouts was ever found. No one ever knew what happened to him"....

Details are sketchy - currently unable to find her transportation or entry into USA. If Anne & Andrew were married in New Jersey, strange no immigration records for that?? Perhaps try New Jersey

Notes on a family website, saying Andrew became ill, suggest return to Scotland? Which Andrew - Husband of Son?
Again no records to verify this entry
