Death Registration
Robert Wilkie, aged 71*, at 87 Park Street, Alva, in the Parish of Alva, on 30 December 1916, Cattleman retired, Widower of Janet Adamson, parents unknown, usual residence 5 Midtown, Menstrie. Cause of Death - Infirmity of Age, Bruise of Face (Accidental), the Informant Alexander Anderson, Interim Inspector of the Poor, Alva.
* Note - Bob and I wonder if the age should be 81, based on the above Census data. Altho the parents aren't named, strong probability this is our Robert Wilkie because of his wifes' name, Robert had been residing in Clackmannanshire between 1881 and 1901 censuses - so several years.





There may not have been a family to this couple , as no children mentioned on either of the census forms, nor this death certificate.
