"He be c a me an E nginee r , and a f ter pu rs uing his t r ade i n G l asgow, followed by a period in t he Merc a n t ile M a rine, he set t led down in his nat i ve district. He, i n 1871, acquired the property of "Sherri f fmuirlands" and became the proprietor of threshing mills, the busin e ss developing into an e x t e nsive one. He was a quiet unassuming man, and was gr eatly esteemed by those who h a d the pleas u re of his a q u a int a nce. He took no p a rt in p u blic a ffairs, b u t w a s a genero u s contrib u t o r t o a ll objec t s for t he good of t he l o c a lity. A herit o r of t he P a rish, he w a s a member of t he Logie P a rish Church.

Obit from t he S t irling Paper.
WILL :- dated 1 4th December, 1918. Very l o ng & drawn out. Basically leaves everyth i ng to his wife if she was s t ill alive &
visa versa. Seems like a " double Will".
Up o n the death of both, all the es tates is to be conve r ted i n to c a sh a n d e q ually be divid e d b e twe e n the c hild r en: A lexande r , John, Marion & Jane. If any of t h e children s ho u ld die & n o t have any child r en, t h en their s hare is to go to the o t h e r s ibling s . With the girls, if they sho u ld marry then the h u sb a n d s h a ve no right t o t heir sh a r es. If Alex a nder, who worked wi t h his f at her, wishes t o c a rry on wi t h the business, he m a y either lease or purch a se t he business from t he Trus t . If he rejec t ed t he offer, it was all to be s o ld & a dd e d to the Trus t .
