Rachel Calder

  General Notes:

Rachel's son's marriage is the only reference we have of her, at his time...

Extracted from John Duncan's "We Are All Margaret Haldanes's Bairns":

Isabella Napier Stewart Duncan [28 years] married William Alfred Bousted Boyd #85 [30 years] in Glasgow, on the 25th of June in 1924. The ceremony took place at her mother's house, 27 Richmond St., Glasgow, with Henry Turner, Minister of John Knox St. Baptist Church, officiating.
Alf's usual address was given as 24 Maryfield Place, Bonnyrigg, Midlothian, and his parent's as John Boyd, Master Grocer, and Rachel Boyd m.s. Calder. { Marriage Registered 30 June 1924., No 104 District of St Rollox, Glasgow.}

They (Rachel's son and daughter-in-law) emigrated to Melbourne, Australia in the 1930's, apparently together with (Isabella's sister) Elizabeth McMillan Duncan.

Rachel married John Boyd in SCT. (John Boyd was born circa 1865.)
