38. Residence: 6 Ardmillan Terrace, 1925, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland. ⁶²⁴ He was the tenant/occupier but not the owner. He was living alone by this time, his wife having died years earlier and all of his children having left. Oddly, his occupation was listed as "Rubberworker". I cannot account for this anomaly. His rent was 22 pounds and 15 shillings a year. Ownership of the house at 6 Ardmillan Terrace was complicated and split amongst at least 6 people, including 3 named Coulter and two married women who may have been Coulters at birth but also one man named George Young ( a brother-in-law?).

39. Medical Condition: Died at 7:30 PM, 14 Oct 1927, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland. ⁹⁴⁴

40. Alt. Death, 14 Oct 1929, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland.
