Notes |
- Previously living in Edinburgh, where she moved from the family home in Hamilton, in the 1911 Census she is living at Wallacehal,l in Glencairn, Dumfries. She is living with a family called McClelland and she is boarding with them.
Margaret's obituary was printed in the Hamilton Advertiser on Sat 29th April 1916.
"The Late Miss Wharrie, the last we believe of a family well known to Hamiltonians of a generation ago has passed away in the death, on 22nd inst., Wallace Hall, Dunscore, of Miss Margaret Morley Drysdale Wharrie. She was the daughter of the late Dr. James B. Wharrie, who was prison doctor in Hamilton up till the discontinuance of that institution in our midst, and resided at Avon Grange, which he built. The funeral took place on Wednesday from Hamilton Central C.R. Station to the cemetery in Bent Road. Mr Thomas J. Drysdale Wharrie, who died at Montrose in February a year ago, was the last of the sons of the late Dr. Wharrie."
There possibly was a connection to her aunty Rachel, who died here (Dumfries) in 1872 so maybe a cousin?
