I did find him in the 1891 and 1901 census, along with the names of his parents and siblings.   They both record him born in Dyke about 1883, however Scotland’s People just records one male called William Reid born in Dyke around that time, and it was in 1882. ? The 19th August 1921 edition of the Press & Journal reports on the unveiling of a war memorial at Milne’s Institution in Fochabers for the Former Pupils who had given their lives. There is mention that the Flower’s O’ The Forest was played by Pipe-Major William Reid. [Fochabers connection so possible]   Information from Ron Abbott GWFEB2 –

Richardson, William Purves, Corp 351140 b. Roslin 1/11/1889, d. 23/4/17 age 17, Son of Alexander and Mary Richardson (nee Purves). Memorials: Penicuik Co-operative Association Ltd; Roslin; Roslin Middle Cemetery; Roslin Parish Church; commemorated on the family headstone in Roslin Middle cemetery. [Midlothian Journal 18 May 1917]: We also regret to announce the death of Private Wm. Richardson, Royal Scots, and much sympathy is extended to Mr and Mrs Alex. Richardson, Springfield Place, and family. Private Richardson was a promising young man, and his loss is very much deplored. He was a grocer to trade, and before joining the Army was employed by the Co-operative Store. [Midlothian Journal 25 May 1917]: News has just been received by Mr and Mrs Alex Richardson, Springfield Place, Roslin, of the death of their son, Corporal William P. Richardson, somewhere on the great battlefield of Arras. He was in the machine gun section of the Royal Scots. A great grandson of George Richardson, late of the old 94th Scots Brigade, the lives of the two soldiers form a strange contrast. Although 100 years divided them they both fought for the same cause, to preserve the freedom and liberties of Europe from a military tyrant. The Peninsular War was part of the great struggle then waged to put down the French military domination of Europe and the present war is to put down the military domination of Germany. In the Peninsular War George Harrison was with the Scots Brigade in the advance to Madrid and in the subsequent retreat to Corunna. He was present at the Battle of Corunna and the burial of Sir John Moore. Returning again to the Peninsula under Lord Wellington, he was present at most of the great battles down to Toulouse. He was afterwards discharged with a wound in his leg, but notwithstanding his early hardships he lived to the advanced age of 94. In the present war his great grandson has played a no less worthy part. In the early stages of war William joined up, and when he crossed the Channel he was put in the machine gun section of his battalion and from that time onward he led a hard, busy life. In the great battles of the Somme last year he had many hairbreadth escapes and was present at the assault and capture of Beaumont Hamel. In the fighting leading up to the great opening battle of Arras he had twice his dugout blown in on him, and at another time his billet was burned down. He gave his life in the service of his country on 23rd April, aged 27, and was the last of the draft who joined the battalion with him. He was also a grandson of Sergeant William Purves, Dalkeith, who was thirty years connected with the Volunteer movement and retired with the Long Service Medal.

Memorials: Bonnyrigg; Cockpen Parish Church; Lasswade School War Memorial; Newbattle Churchyard. Jim Rigby’s brother Frank also served in the war. [Dalkeith Advertiser 31 January 1918]: Mr and Mrs Rigby, 6 Salter Place, Bonnyrigg, have been notified that their youngest son, James Gordon Rigby, Royal Scots, who was previously reported missing on 23rd April 1917, is now presumed to have been killed in action on that date. Previous to enlistment he was employed as a grocer by the Dalkeith Co-operative Society. He was a lad of bright and cheerful disposition and was respected by all who came in contact with him. He enlisted when he attained the age of 18 in the Royal Naval Division, and was latterly transferred to the Royal Scots. Mr and Mrs Rigby’s eldest and only surviving son is at present fighting in Mesopotamia. The sympathy of the community goes out to the parents in their sad bereavement.

Robertson, J., Piper Seton, Bruce, ‘The Pipes of War’, 1920 –  James Roberston, studio portrait ‘James Robertson (1893-1948) took over the bagpipe making business of John and James Center in Grove Street, Edinburgh, when they emigrated to Australia in 1908. As bagpipe maker he made Highland bagpipes and, in the 1920s, began to make Northumbrian Half-long pipes in collaboration with William Cocks of Ryton-on-Tyne. The business closed in 1964.’ NMS link provided by Ron Abbott ‘purported to be of him in civilian highland dress’ ‘He actually became a renowned bagpipe maker taking over the business from his father, located at 58 and then at 64 Grove Street in Edinburgh. His bagpipes are still sought after today.  They were of a heavier design than most with very large projecting mounts, and they are renowned for producing a quality sound. He also subsequently became a Pipe-Major (Sergeant-Piper) in the Royal Scots, first with the 1/4th Bn. Royal Scots (apparently from 1916 until 1919) and then between 1919 (?) and 1925 was Pipe-Major of the 4/5th Bn. Royal Scots. If you search the newspaper archives you will find mention of him as Pipe-Major of the 4/5th and also find adverts pertaining to his bagpipe company.  (But beware; there are some bagpipe relate websites which purport he was Scots Guards.  He wasn’t….that was another man of the same name who was around at a similar time ! 100% definitely different men who sometimes get confused) His name was James Robertson, born at Milhall Cottages, Penicuik on 22nd June 1892. He died in Edinburgh on 25th January 1948 at which time his residential address was recorded as 21 Orchard Road South, Edinburgh. The records of birth/death provide his father’s name as James Robertson and mother as Isabella Flockhart Martin. His wife/widow was called Jane Robertson Muir.  They were married in Edinburgh in 1921. I also uncovered a newspaper article which may or may not relate to him.  The 4th Dec 1944 edition of The Scotsman contains an article about a march past in Edinburgh of the massed bands of the Home Guard and the pipes and drums were under “Pipe-Major J Robertson”.   There were at least three men called J Robertson who had been army pipe-majors in WW1/1920s/1930s…..so it may or may not be him.’ Book of bagpipe music property of Robertson enscribed ‘Corporal Jas. Robertson, 1/9 -15 Royal Scots, BEF France, Bound in France, October 14th 1918. This may be 1/9th Royal Scots – 15th Division’ In the 1920s he was certainly in the 4/5th Royal Scots and the adverts for his business state that he was Pipe-Major of the 1/4th Royal Scots. Marriage record in 1921 only records that he is a bagpipe maker with residence at 38 Polwarth Crescent.  Birth cert 23.6.1892, Milkhall Cottages, Penicuik to James Robertson, music teacher, pipe major, and Isabella Robertson Marriage cert 8.7.1921 James Robertson (29), bagpipe maker of 38 Polwarth Cres, Edin, to ?Jane R.

Rogers, Reginald K., Sgt 520 – b.1890 at Dunbar, the elder son of Reuben M Rogers, a Customs and Excise Supervisor, and Harriet Rogers, of 5 Balfour Street, Alloa. On 23 April 1915, the Alloa Advertiser reported: How Sergeant R K Rogers was Wounded A letter has been received by Mr R. M. Rogers, 5 Balfour Street, Alloa, describing how his eldest son, Sergeant R. K. Rogers, 9th Royal Scots Highlanders, was wounded on 7th April, along with another Sergeant of D Coy., he was called out of his billet to accompany the Captain and two Lieutenants on an inspection of trenches, prior to leading in the platoons. That was shortly before the billets were shelled by the Germans, resulting in nine of his comrades being killed and about fifty wounded. The trench was an uncompleted one, taken over from our allies, and another company was busy strengthening it. A bullet came right through the parapet and struck Sergeant Rogers on the left side of the nape of the neck, passed clean through just under the skin, and emerged on the right side. Fortunately he stooped slightly at the moment over a tea “dixie” and he also attributes his miraculous escape to the fact that he had his Balaclava helmet rolled in several folds inside his greatcoat collar. This doubtless helped to deflect the bullet, which passed through greatcoat and tunic collars and several folds of wool before reaching the neck. The shock blinded him and caused deafness to the right ear. He was made comfortable in a “dug­out” until nightfall, when he was taken to the rear, and sent to Boulogne. He is now out of hospital and in the convalescent camp. He recovered his sight after three days, and the deafness is disappearing. He expresses satisfaction that he “bagged two that morning” before they got him. http://www.edinburghs-war.ed.ac.uk/Clackmannan/People/Sergeant-Reginald-Rogers France 24.2.15 Sjt 520 MIC0629

Roy, Jas.    4358 – James Roy, was killed on the 23rd April 1917, whilst serving with the 1/5th Cameronians.  Their Roll of Honour has him as formerly in the Royal Scots with the number 4358. James was one of two brothers killed at Arras; the other Robert was in the Cameron Highlanders. They lived in Montgomery Street and between 1912 and 1915 James played for Everton as a reserve. He left the side in May 1915 and our best guess is that he joined up in December 1915.  Information courtesy John Drouot – James Roy, born Edin.

James was the eldest of four sons and he had one elder and two younger sisters. When the 1891 census was taken two year old James and his family were living at 10 Elgin Street, between Calton Hill at the end of Princes Street and what is now Hibernian’s Easter Road Ground. Ten years on the family had moved across the road to number 11, and by 1911 they were living above the shops of Easter Road at number 24. James, by this time 22, was working as a railwayman and his father as a postman. Aside from the day job James was making a name for himself as a left-half in local non-league football, and in the 1910-11 season he captained Penicuik Athletic to the East of Scotland Junior Cup. Penicuick was a small town south of Edinburgh on the Lothian coalfield; it would become the home of Everton’s legendary hero Alex Young after he finished playing. James’ performances resulted in a move to nearby Broxburn the following year and within months he had come to the attention of Everton. At a board meeting on 3rd December 1913 two directors were deputed to travel north to arrange a transfer the following Saturday. In the days before widespread telephone use it was difficult to communicate back to Liverpool and the directors were allowed to decide on the terms on the spot; “with powers” is the phrase used in the board minutes. The fee agreed was £60 rising to £85 if he was retained for the following season and James would be paid a £10 bonus and £3 a week. The same board minutes record his selection for a junior team to play Prescot Wire Works, and two weeks later he made his debut for the reserves on Christmas Day at Goodison against Manchester United. [continues] Group 9 was mobilised 8th February 1916 [continues] ToffeeWeb and ToffeeWeb – Everton minutes 15.6.17 record James Roy kia Merseyside – In April 1917 he is likely to have fought in the Hindenburg line south of Arras and was probably mortally wounded attacking along the forward trench in the Tunnel trench section on 23rd April as his battalion attempted to reach a group of Suffolks cut off by the Germans.

Sandison, Burnett Pte 350280 9th RS 1702 – CWGC website shows that Burnett Sandison was the son of Lewis Grant Sandison and Isabella Burnett Sandison of 18 Balmoral Place, Edinburgh. The 1901 Census shows him aged 3 years living with his parents at 1 Rintoul Place, Edinburgh. Both of these addresses are in the Stockbridge ‘Colonies’. His father was a compositor. He served in the 1st/9th Royal Scots and died of wounds on 15/04/1917. He is buried in Etaples Military Cemetery in France. Burnett Sandison is also commemorated on the War Memorial at Broughton High School. The Edinburgh Evening Dispatch reported his death on 23rd April 1917 but there was no indication of any connection with Granton. The report did, however, include the additional information that:- He was the third son of Mr & Mrs L G Sandison (no address given)Before enlisting he had been an apprentice with Messrs Baildon, Chemists, Edinburgh (this firm had premises on Princes Street)An elder brother had returned from the United States to join the Royal Scots and had also died of wounds. The Granton War Memorial does not include the name of the elder brother (probably he had never lived in Granton) but he can be identified as John Sandison who served in the 10th Battalion Royal Scots and who died of wounds on 23rd June 1915 [continues].  Granton History0640 –

He was, as we have it in Scotland, “fey.” A presentiment was upon him that he would not come back; and to all optimistic prophecies he turned a deaf ear. “But,” he said, “I don’t mind.

John Scott (M.A., of  Gillespie Manse, Biggar) and Marion Gilmour Scott, 32 Pilrig Street, Edinburgh. Private Scott arrived in France 4th December 1915. Commemorated on Biggar High School Memorial Plaque. Information courtesy Swally, GWF – Stewart Melville Walter Brown Scott, Pte, RS, was killed in action 18th May 1916. He was the son of the late Rev John Scott MA, Gillespie Church, Biggar, and of Mrs Scott, 32 Pilrig St, Edinburgh. He received his early education at Biggar High School and in 1907 he came to Danield Stewart’s College which he left in 1913. On leaving school he entered the office of Messrs Boyd, Jamieson & Young, WS, Leith, where he was employed until April 1915 when he joined 9RS with whom he was drafted to France in November. How he was regarded by his comrades in France may be seen from the following excerpt froma letter received by his mother from his Platoon Officer, Lt James R Black: “Your son was in my Platoon since he joined us, and he was always a cheeful and willing worker. His pasing will be felt by his comrades in no small measure, as he was a universal favourite.” Stewart Melville 1916SD –

He was being carried from the battlefield by the company stretcher bearers, and I had a short talk with him and he seemed most cheerful nad was smoking a cigarette. He had his leg badly damaged, but I never dreamt he would other than get over it, still according to the report he must have died that evening. We mourn the loss of such a gallant officer. He led his company more than half way to the objective, and he was most unfortunate in being knocked out just before a great victory came our way… During the short time your grandson was with us we had learnt to love him as he was one of the most genial of fellows’ ?Williams.

The Shannon’s much wished-for news that Alastair, their son and brother, was alive in a POW Camp in Anatolia was confirmed in July 1916. References in Molly Whitelaw’s papers indicate Alastair was part of the ‘Death March’ that crossed 1900 kms of Syrian Desert where thousands died of ‘dysentery, beri-beri, scurvy, malaria, enteritis’ and exhaustion. Of the 2,500 white British prisoners who set out on the march, only 856 survived. Shannon spent the rest of the war in Anatolia, quite possibly at Afion Karahissar, with at least 100 British Officers. He was repatriated in December 1918.’ Wrote book in captivity ‘Morning Knowledge: the Story of the New Inquisition’ 1920 – see site for details https://ywilkieblog.wordpress.com/tag/alastair-shannon/ – J A Shannon 2/Lt Mesopotamia HLI missing Apr 16, repat 16 Dec 18 record no 7903 – ?A ShannonWWR –

Shaw, Alfred Ernest Sergeant Alfred Ernest Shaw, 9th Royal Scots. 31 Broughton Place, Edinburgh, was the fifth son of William Shaw, plumber, and of his wife Jessie Dorward, 48 Fergus Square. Arbroath. He was twenty-four years of age and was a Highland ornament-maker and jeweller in the employment of Messrs Mackay & Chisholm, Princes Street, Edinburgh. Being a Territorial, he was mobilised on the outbreak of war, and went to France in February 1915 with the 9th Royal Scots, “the Dandy Ninth.” He saw a great deal of hard fighting, his battalion, owing to the extraordinary pressure of the enemy, having at one time occupied the same trenches for thirty-one days. A year later he was invalided home suffering from myalgia, and on his return to France, after being employed for some time as a hut-builder he was promoted to the rank of sergeant. He again took part in many engagements, and was made platoon sergeant, and it was while leading his platoon in an attack on the enemy trenches that he was killed on the 20th of September 1917.

Shaw, James, Corporal. (Walkerburn) 1917. September 23. News was received by his sister, Miss Mary Shaw, Tweed View, Walkerburn, of the death of her brother, Corporal James Shaw, Royal Scots. He was wounded in the left leg by shrapnel on 23rd September, and lived only a few hours after admission to hospital. Corporal Shaw joined up on the day of mobilisation, having done seven years’ service in the Volunteer and Territorial Force. He did not go out to France in 1914 with the 8th Royal Scots, but he went out in July, 1915, coming home at the end of the year on special leave owing to bereavement. In 1916, Corporal Shaw was drafted to the 9th Royal Scots, with whom he spent some months, seeing some severe fighting at Beaumont, Hamel, and other places. He was home again at the beginning of 1917 for four weeks being time expired, but before he went out again he spent 3 months in hospital in Edinburgh. Going to France again in July, he was dangerously wounded on 22nd September and died the following day after having a leg amputated. Before war broke out, Cpl. Shaw was employed in the yarn department of Tweedvale Mills (Messrs Henry Ballantyne & Sons, Limited). He was a prominent member of Walkerburn Rugby Club, being a three-quarter of no mean order, being possessed of a rare turn of speed.

Smith, David T., Pte (Stobo) Royal Scots. 1918. August 2 (Friday). Died of wounds on 2nd August, 1918, Pte. David Telfer Smith, aged 31 years. Royal Scots, beloved husband of Annie Pyper, and youngest son of William Smith, Newhouses, Stobo, Peeblesshire. David Telfer Smith was born at Skirling, on 4th Sept., 1887. He received all his education at Stobo School. Entering the employment of the Caledonian Railway Company he served at Carmyle, Scotston West, Glasgow Central, and Greenock. Thereafter he joined the Caledonian Steam, Packet Co., Ltd., and was in their office at Gourock when the war called him to the Army. He joined the Royal Scots Fusiliers on 3rd July, 1916, and transferred to the 9th Royal Scots. He was severely wounded in France, and had to spend about a year in this country before he was able to return to the front. Then he was in active service for eight months until, on 2nd August, 1918, he was badly hit by machine-gun fire, and expired on the way to the dressing station. He was buried in the British Military Cemetery at Senlis. He was of exceptionally gentle and kindly disposition, a great favourite with all who knew him. He was married to Miss Ann Pyper, by whom and a little daughter, Betty, three years old, he is survived. A beautifully illuminated address with portrait has been presented to Mrs Smith by the Steam Packet Company, paying tribute to her husband’s worth as a man and valour as a soldier. The deepest sympathy is felt for her and her child as well as with David’s father (Mr William Smith, Newhouses, Stobo), brother and sisters. In Honour of David Telfer Smith, who gave his life in his country’s cause in the Great European War, the Directors, Manager and Staff of the Caledonian Steam Packet Co., Ltd., desire to place on record the following facts: — “Mr Smith, who was a clerk in the office at Gourock, had a successful career in the Company. After two years’ devotion on active service he died of gunshot wounds at a Casualty Clearing Station in France, on 2nd August, 1918. The Staff are proud to have been associated with this gallant man in the peaceful occupation of former times, and in order that his devotion may not be forgotten and that his heroism may remain a shining example to after years, his name has been inscribed upon the Company’s Roll of Honour. When the Great War shall have come to an end and men look back upon the cause for which Britain fought, it will be seen ever more vividly and gratefully that those who have shown themselves thus loyal unto death have assuredly not given their lives in vain.” God Save the King.

Stephen, A, Colour-Sergeant transferred from 1st Bn Gordon Highlanders, appointed instructor March 1905, replacing J Duncan. – The first Sgt-Maj of Reserve Bn was Colour-Sgt A.D Stephen, joined from National Reserve. Previously 1st Gordons and Sgt Maj in 1/9th RS. Held post until formation of 3/9th at Peebles, replaced by T. Low. The Leather Sporran, Vol 1, No 1, 1st Sept 1916 – ‘When with the 2/9th we obtained much hard training under our excellent R.S.M. – Stephens who had fought with the Gordons at Dargai and in South Africa.’ Marching and shooting his subjects, encouraging to the young, ruled the srgts mess with an iron rod – no swearing, high standards, little drinking. ? Seems likely RWFJ also means Stephen with ‘The RSM was a former Gordon Highlander who spoke of Dargai, the Frontier and the Boer war.’ He recalled Modder River. DCM and LSM. A strict disciplinarian who ensured they were well spaced between men and between waves for skirmishing. ? RWFJ also relates an instructor tearing a strip of recruits at 1912 camp for missing their targets, and referring to the poor shooting at Modder River. This could again be Stephen.

His Company Commander wrote of him that ‘he was one of the best junior N.C.O.’s in C Company, and his excellent work had brought him before the notice of the Company Officers. Personally I had more opportunities than some of the others in seeing him, and it was a great pleasure to me to be able, from information received, to include his amongst the six names in the Company which I brought before the Colonel’s notice for special work done during an attack by the Company. He was recommended by me on that occasion ‘for excellent general work and assistance’ given to his Platoon Commander. After the latter was wounded close to the German trench, Lance-Corporal Sumner brought him in.’ Killed.

Taylor, Alexander Capt 21.4.17 1872-1917 Father: manufacturer Law firm: Robertson, Low, Robertson & Cross (Glasgow) Admitted to Faculty Nov 1896 Educ. Glasgow Academy, Glasgow University Many of the men on these pages were killed in action after only a few weeks or even days at the front, but Taylor endured lengthy service and saw action in some of the worst battles of the Great War. Born in Barnmills, Carrickfergus, Ireland, in 1872, his parents moved the family to Glasgow when he was young, and he was educated at Glasgow Academy and Glasgow University. His father was a manufacturer, although of what is not known. He graduated with honours in Classics, before taking his law degree, and carried out his training at Messrs Robertson, Low, Robertson and Cross. He was admitted to the Faculty in 1896. According to the Scots Law Times he never acquired a large practice despite appearing in several important cases. He contributed many articles to the law journals of the time, and reported on Justiciary cases. He acted as interim Sheriff-Substitute in Banff, Stornoway, Aberdeen and Glasgow; and in 1911 he was appointed Sheriff-Substitute at Forfar where he proved most efficient, and his judgements were always apparently cogent and well-reasoned, and only rarely appealed. He married Rhoda McIntyre at Bridgend House, Callander in March 1905; her father was a fancy dress manufacturer from Glasgow and Taylor‟s address at that time was given as 1 Albyn Place, Edinburgh. In 1900 9th Battalion (Highlanders) The Royal Scots was formed to meet a widely held desire that the capital of Scotland should have a Highland unit, just as London and Liverpool boasted kilted regiments in the London and Liverpool Scottish. It was raised as a battalion of the Queen’s Rifle Volunteer Brigade, but with distinctions of its own, notably the kilt, which has earned for it the nickname of “The Dandy Ninth.” It sent forty-five men to South Africa. Taylor was commissioned in this battalion on 3rd November 1900, along with fellow Advocate James Ferguson, Senior. He resigned in 1902, but rejoined in 1905; in 1912 he was moved to the reserve list after being made Sheriff in Forfar. On 4th August 1914 he was mobilised as a reservist, and as a Captain took command of “A” Company. 9th Royal Scots were based at 89 East Claremont Street, Edinburgh. He landed with his battalion at Le Havre on 26th February 1915, and fought initially with 81st Brigade of the 27th Division, later with the 154th Brigade of the 51st (Highland) Division. He fought at the 2nd Battle of Ypres (with Walter Lyon) and was severely wounded at St Julien, one of the actions during the battle, on 23rd April 1915. After almost a year‟s recuperation, he returned to his battalion on 1st March 1916, and survived the Somme offensive, when his battalion suffered huge losses. He was killed at the Battle of Arras on 27th April 1917 when leading his Company in the fighting for the Scarpe Valley. The Scots Law Times mentioned his kindly nature, and genial humour, which made him a great favourite. The Royal Scots’ official history states that the battalion took over trenches near Fampoux on the 15th April. On the 21st, “A” Company succeeded in forcing a passage along a trench in front of Mount Pleasant Wood, and after ejecting the Germans, established a post there. This should have been enough, but the Company then went on to Roeux Wood, where it was sadly cut up by the enemy riflemen and machine gunners, and was forced back to its starting point. In this unlucky action, Captain Taylor was killed. Taylor was buried at Level Crossing Cemetery, Fampoux. Beside him lie another 51 officers and men of 9th Royal Scots, almost all of whom were killed in the same week as Taylor. http://www.advocates.org.uk/media/2172/warmemorialwordpdf3.pdf

Thomson, John ?12th Bn RS 23 Biggiesknowe, Peebles Peebleshire roll of honour : being names of men connected with Tweeddale enrolled in His Majesty’s forces, August 1914-December 1915 (1916) https://archive.org/details/peebleshirerollo1916peeb Thomson, John M., Pte 1917—May 3. MRS JOHN THOMSON, 22a Biggiesknowe, Peebles, received official intimation from the Infantry Record Office, Hamilton, informing her that the Army Council had been constrained to conclude that her husband, Private JOHN M. THOMSON, Royal Scots, who had been previously reported as missing in France since 3rd May 1917, was dead, and that his death took place on that date, as they had received no further information concerning him. The deceased, who was 36 years of age, previous to enlisting in the “Dandy Ninth” (Royal Scots) while they were encamped at Peebles during August 1915 was employed as a powerloom tuner in Damdale Mill, Peebles, and went out to France in September 1916. He was survived by his wife and three young children—two boys and a girl—whose ages at the time of their father’s death were 9, 6, and 4 respectively. Private Thomson, who was the third son of Mr and Mrs R. Thomson, 23 Biggiesknowe, had four brothers serving with the Colours, one of whom—Private Alex. M. Thomson, Royal Scots — was also reported missing a few days previous to the deceased being reported missing. A communication, however, was received from Private Alexander Thomson, stating that he was a prisoner of war in Germany. “Our reports show that on 3rd May 1917 the 12th Royal Scots took part in the fighting near Gavrelle, on the Arras front. They made a night attack, or as some call it, ‘ a bombing raid,’ to relieve two other Battalions which were ‘in a tight place’ near the Chemical Works at Roeux. The hour of starting was 9 P.M., and the enemy artillery was very active. Shells were dropping all round, and this made it practically impossible for the 12th Royal Scots to advance far enough to be of assistance to the other regiments. They must have been almost in touch with the enemy at one time, for one man speaks of ‘the Germans being nearly on us, and it was difficult to get help to the wounded.’ One company got held up in No Man’s Land, and remained in a shell-hole for many hours. When the order to retire came they crawled out, and some of them succeeded in getting back to their own lines. This was 3.30 A.M., and it is said that during the action wounded men crawled back. The ground was lost, but patrols went out over and over again on successive nights to try and find wounded officers and men. Shell-fire must have accounted for many of the wounded. The ground is said to have been taken by another regiment some time afterwards.” The book of remembrance for Tweeddale, Vol. I (1920) Thomson, John McIntyre, Pte 40123 12th Bn See also WW1_Casualties_by_Regiment_Letter_R.pdf  www.midlothian.gov.uk/

Todd, Joseph, Pte 352496 Date of death 25/05/1917 Age 21 Resided Armadale, Linlithgowshire Enlisted Armadale, Linlithgowshire Son of Mrs. Todd North Street Armadale. Mrs. Todd received the following letter from Lt J N Cowan: “6th Jun. It is with the greatest regret that I have to inform you of the death of your son, Pte Todd. He was of the very best soldiers of our Company, and one we could ill spare. He was well liked by all, and when I say that I include myself as his Officer, for I saw and appreciated his qualities, his cheerful courage in the face of danger, and uncomplaining performance of his duties. In the comparatively short time he had been with the Battalion he had established a record of good work, courage and reliability in battle. He was killed on May 25th by a shell while on Sniping duty. His death was instantaneous and painless. He was buried in a British soldier’s cemetery beside other brave men, and the place where he lies is registered. You have my sincere sympathy in your sorrow.” Joseph joined the 7th Royal Scots in early 1915, and survived the Gretna Rail Crash, and he went on to serve in the Dardanelles 12th June 1915, from there he then served in France. Whilst he was in the Dardanelles he was wounded at Gallipoli, and another Armadale lad wrote to his mother wrongly to tell her that Joseph had been killed, luckily his mother received a post card shortly after informing her that he was doing well. Prior to enlisting Joseph was a fish hawker and salesman. Armadale & District War Memorial Association http://www.ww1daleboys.com/qt.htm

[Dalkeith Advertiser 9 January 1919]: It is now intimated that Private Robert Todd, Royal Scots (Highlanders), is officially declared killed. Private Todd was posted amongst the missing last spring and now the anxious wait of his relatives has been ended by the announcement of his death. A son of the late Mr Todd, for long grieve at Arniston Mains and latterly at Rosebery Home Farm, he was a signalman in the N.B. Railway service previous to enlistment. He was brother-in-law to Mr James Learmonth, Clayhouse. A quiet-going genial lad, he had a host of friends in the locality who all mourn his loss, a great part of their sympathy going out to his widow, who resides in Edinburgh. He was married immediately before going on active service. WW1_Casualties_by_Regiment_Letter_R.pdf  www.midlothian.gov.uk/ Private Robert Todd, 9th Royal Scots, born at Peebles in 1887, was the youngest son of Robert Chalmers Todd, a Ploughman, and Agnes [Kerr] Todd. His siblings were Richard, John, Margaret, Jessie, Agnes and Elizabeth. Before enlisting at South Queensferry, he was employed as a Railway Signaller and resided at Wester Dalmeny then 19 Montpelier Park, Edinburgh. He was married to Mary Murray Todd, who resided at 22 Lennox Street, Edinburgh, after the war. He was killed in action on 22 March 1918, age 33, and is buried in Marteville Communal Cemetery, Attilly, Aisne, France. http://www.scotlandswar.ed.ac.uk/sites/default/files/PDF_Dalmeny_War_Memorial_1.pdf

As far as can be ascertained from private enquiries it appears that on the date mentioned Private Turnbull was wounded in the leg, and took shelter in a shell hole where a shell was seen to burst later, and it is presumed that he was then killed. Private Turnbull, who was 26 years of age, was previously a farm servant at Auchendinny Mains. WW1_Casualties_by_Regiment_Letter_R.pdf  www.midlothian.gov.uk/

PATRIOTIC LEITH FAMILY
Major Robertson, V.C,, speaking at a recruiting meeting in Leith, announced that it had been brought to his knowledge that a man present in the crowd had four sons, two sons-in-law, a nephew, and a niece in the King’s service. This, he thought, was a most creditable record for one family, tho more so since the father of the four sons held the Long Service Medal for twenty-two years’ service in the Volunteers. The father, Mr John Valentine, resides at 23 Buchanan Street, Leith. His sons, Corporal John Valentine, Lance-Corporal George Valentine, and Private Cecil Valentine, are in the 9th Battalion Royal Scots. His fourth son, Gunner Harry Valentine, is in the Forth R.G.A. George and Cecil are both in France with their regiment. George was wounded in the trenches on the 4th inst., and is now reported to be in hospital at Boulogne. One son-in-law is with the British Naval Air Squadron in the North of France; the other is mine-sweeping off the Southern Coast. The nephew is in the 3rd H.L.I., and is now in hospital at Currie invalided home from France. Mr Valentine’s niece is a Red Cross nurse, and is now in Serbia.

He had his company moving in ten minutes, and successfully stopped any advance of the enemy. His prompt action at a difficult moment was of great value. Edin Gaz 29.7.18, also LG 26.7.18

Walker, George Butler, son of William and Ellen Louisa Foxley Walker of Bonaly Road, Edinburgh died on 9 April 1917. He served as a Lance Corporal with 1st/9th Battalion The Royal Scots and was 21 years old. The Battalion was raised in August 1914 at East Claremont Street, and was originally responsible for Scottish coastal defences. However, by 1917, such was the demand for reinforcements that they had been dispatched to France, and George found himself fighting as part of 51st Highland Division alongside his colleague Henry Adams in the Arras offensive. George died on the opening day, and Henry was killed two weeks later. George is buried at Nine Elms Cemetery, six kilometres from Arras. The cemetery includes a large number of soldiers who fell on the same day as George, including a row of 80 graves belonging to the men of a Canadian Infantry Battalion who were all cut down as soon as they stepped out their trench.

WARDLE, MARK CLIFFORD, M C, Private, ‘202032’, 1st/9th Bn., 23, 1/Aug/1918, France, SON OF JOHN THOMAS AND EMMA WARDLE, OF 47, WINDSOR RD., FAIRFIELD, BUXTON.CWGC
Wardle, Mark Clifford, Pte 202032, formerly Private 64414 2/4th Battalion Mark was born on the 28th May 1895, the only son of John Thomas (Railway Engine Stoker) and Emma (née Harrison) Wardle, at 3 Cross Street, Buxton. Mark enlisted at Derby on the 21st August 1916 into the Royal Scots, after Attesting on the 31st August, he was immediately admitted to the Army Reserve the next day and Mobilised on the 20th October 1916. Four days later he was posted to the 2/4th Battalion of the Royal Scots. Mark clearly went to Ireland with the 2/4th Battalion as he spent 17 days in Fermoy Infirmary, from the 20th August to 6th September 1917. Two months later, however, he was back in Scotland, and back in Hospital, spending almost three months in Edinburgh Military Hospital (15th November 1917 to 12th February 1918). His Service Papers do not make clear when Mark transferred to the 1/9th Battalion. ‘The Buxton Advertiser’ of the 12th August 1916, stated that although Mark had served in the Army for ” … something like 18 months … ” he had only been in France about 5 weeks. It went on to say that he had been taken ill, delaying his “… departure for the scene of hostilities, and was in hospital at Edinburgh.” “Pte. Wardle was taking part in an attack on a wood, and was killed by a machine gun bullet. This was on the 1st August and he was buried on the same evening.” For this and further information see: http://buxtonwarmemorials.mrallsophistory.com/wardle_mc.html

Watson, John, Private (Innerleithen) 8th Royal Scots. 1918. March 24 (Sunday). John Watson was the oldest son of Mr Thos. Watson, now of 1 Castle Street, Selkirk, and was born at Innerleithen in January, 1890. He was employed at Waverley Mills, Innerleithen, also with Lowe, Donald & Co., Peebles, and at the time of enlisting was head warehouseman at Waverley Mills, Innerleithen. He enlisted in the 3/8th Royal Scots on 28th February, 1916; was transferred to the 1/9th Royal Scots in December, 1916, and drafted to France. He was invalided home with septic poisoning in April, 1917. He was drafted again to France in July, 1917, and was wounded with shrapnel in September, 1917; was acting as stretcher- bearer in March, 1918, and was reported wounded and missing in the engagement of 24th March, 1918, and not since reported. On the 25th the Germans carried Bapaume in a night attack; later, their advance, though less rapid than on the previous two days, continued on the whole front from Ervillers (north of Bapaume) to the Oise. From the beginning of the attack the Germans claimed 45,000 prisoners.

Watt, William John Watt, William. Born in Penicuik in 1895, he enlisted in 9th Battalion The Royal Scots in 1916 and was sent to France. Gravely wounded at Arras in 1917, he lost both hands and most of one arm. Accepting that he would have to earn a living, he enrolled at Edinburgh College of Art. Working with a brush strapped to his remaining forearm, he learned to paint. Later he branched out into decorating household wares such as bowls and dishes. Became a resident of Kitchener Crescent in Longniddry.   ‘Coastal Ward 1914-1918’ exhibition by the Coastal Communities Museum Trust, showing the impact of WW1 on East Lothian communities. North Berwick Library – 2014. – “William John Watt, born in Penicuik in 1895, was the younger son of William Watt, a General Labourer, and Ann Watt of 7 Hamilton Place, Penicuik. He had four older sisters, Jane, Ann, Wilhelmina and Alison, and a brother, James. His father had died before the 1901 Census and his mother then went back to working as a Confectioner. William was glad to leave school and went to work in Cowan’s Paper Mill then at the Moat Colliery, Loanhead. He enlisted in the 9th (Dandy Ninth) Royal Scots at Glencorse early in 1916, and saw active service in France. Gravely wounded at the battle of Arras in 1917, he lost both hands and most of one arm, leaving him severely disabled and was in hospital until October 1919 before being discharged. Knowing that opportunities for regular employment for a disabled man like him were slim, Watt resolved to learn to paint, enrolling in classes at the Edinburgh College of Art. Working with a brush strapped to his remaining forearm, he achieved a modest level of competence in easel painting of watercolours and oil paintings. It was only around 1930, that William realised that he would stand a much better chance of earning a living by selling his work in the form of useful or decorative household wares – as he saw others making a success of this kind of enterprise – and he decided to transfer his skills to paint on pots, rather than paper or canvas. Along with other survivors of the War, he was housed in Longniddry, East Lothian, where a colony of veterans’ homes had been established. Longniddry was, incidentally, the village where the first of the Women’s Rural branches in Scotland, founded in 1917, offered classes for teaching how to paint on pots; hand-painted wares were marketed, under the enthusiastic leadership of Catherine Blair, as ‘Hamearts’, or home made craft, and sold through outlets such as stalls at Agricultural Shows, and other events. However, according to his family, William had not chosen to join the ladies in their classes: he was self-taught, using one or two of the popular manuals on ceramic decoration in circulation at the time. The photograph of Watt in his studio shows the ingenious devices by which he overcame his handicap, in order to manipulate the brush and support the piece he was working on. An old wind-up gramophone served as a turntable, allowing him to reach all parts of the pot. In these makeshift surroundings, over a period of several years till the m id-1930s, Watt produced a substantial output of painted pots, including table-wares, vases, ginger jars, and other items: small pieces decorated with surprisingly intricate patterns, as well as larger items, such as ginger jars, in a broader, and simpler style. They were displayed in a glass-fronted showcase on a post in the front garden of his house. Despite the trauma he experienced in the war, Watt’s sense of humour remained intact – he marked his painted pots ‘Stump’. Watt sold his pottery to passing trade from the confectionary and newsagent’s shop he and his family ran in the village. He also received orders from further afield, and even from abroad – possibly helped by one of the charities established to assist wounded veterans. Sources: Text and images © H R Jack 2012.

West, John George Romanian Order of Michael the Brave, 3rd Class London Gazette 20 September 1919. 
This scarce order was awarded to only nine British recipients for services during the Great War. The 1st Class was given to Earl Haig, Lord Allenby and Admiral Beatty, while the 3rd Class was given to six officers, Lieutenant West being the only officer of the British Army to receive this class. 
John George West was born, according to accompanying family notes, at Loch Awe, Argyllshire, in 1893. His father died when he was 18 months old and the family moved to Edinburgh, where he was educated at Daniel Stewart’s Merchant Company School. He joined the 4th Royal Scots Territorials in 1909 but was discharged on medical grounds. When war broke out he was in civil employ as company clerk to a Major at H.Q. Yeomanry, buying horses for the army. He enlisted at Edinburgh into the 9th Battalion, Royal Scots, quickly rose to the rank of Sergeant and was commissioned into the same battalion. The 9th went to France in early 1915 but he was posted east and, attached to the 7th Battalion, Royal Scots, served in Palestine from 31 July 1917. He ‘took part in the 3rd Battle of Gaza and on to Tel-Aviv. Slightly wounded at Esdied, Gaza, in the advance to the Judean Hills. Turkish machine guns, 100 yards away had the wadi covered, received a bullet hole in his haversack and a flesh wound in his arm… Sent to hospital in Alexandria. Got back after advance to Jerusalem. The decoration could be associated with the crossing of the river Arja, the river was in flood, and the Division crossed on small box-like rafts, pulled by ropes, 2 to 3 hours behind schedule. The Transport Officer said to him “I bet you a fiver you get the M.C.” He was recommended for it, but did not get it.’ He afterwards served in France with the 53rd Division. 
Sold with original Romanian award certificate and related War Office correspondence; an invitation to attend a dinner for recipients of the Order at Chateau de Gelesch, dated 8 November 1932; and a rare original copy of a Romanian publication giving a list of the recipients of the Romanian Order of Mihai Viteazul 1916-1920. Together with copied m.i.c., a copied photograph of West in uniform, and other copied research. Four: Lieutenant G. J.

White, William, Pte 200485 [? Same no and date of death as James White] b. Dalkeith 4/2/1879 d. 1/10/18 age 39, Son of James White and Marion Melrose. Memorials: Dalkeith; Dalkeith New Cemetery; St Nicholas Buccleuch Parish Church, Dalkeith. [Dalkeith Advertiser 10 October 1918]: The sympathy of many friends will go out to Mrs James White, Porteous Place, who has just been informed that her son, Pte. William White, Royal Scots, has died in hospital in France. About two months ago Pte. White was wounded on the right side, his injuries being of such a serious nature that little hope could be entertained of his recovery, and he passed away on 1st October. The deceased, who was wellknown in Dalkeith and generally esteemed, answered the call to arms in the early days of the war. He took part in the ill-starred Gallipoli campaign, where he engaged in much severe fighting until he was severely wounded and invalided home. About three months ago he was drafted to the Western front. Pte. White was an ironmonger to trade, having served his apprenticeship with Messrs Metcalfe, Duncan &Co., Dalkeith, and for a number of years prior to his enlistment he was an esteemed employee of Messrs Thos. Scott &Co., Ltd., Grassmarket, Edinburgh. WW1_Casualties_by_Regiment_Letter_R.pdf  www.midlothian.gov.uk/

Wilson, Hugh, Pte (Traquair) Royal Scots. 1916. December 1. The sad news reached Traquair that Private Hugh Wilson, Royal Scots, had been killed in France on 1st December. Previous to enlistment he was employed as a ploughman at Traquair Knowe. For the last ten years he had resided with his mother in Traquair village. He was a quiet, conscientious, and hard-working young man. He saw much serious fighting during the nine months he was in France. From letters received it appears he was acting as one of a bearer company, and when exposed to shell fire was hit on the back of the head by part of a bursting shell — death being instantaneous. Much sympathy was felt for his relatives. The Battle of the Ancre had been raging ever since November 13. This was the fourth phase of the Battle of the Somme. The British had captured St Pierre Divion, south of the Ancre, and Beaumont Hamel, north of the Ancre, and 4000 prisoners. They captured next Beaucourt-sur-Anvre, and advanced east of Butte de Warlencourt. They extended their line to the east, and advanced north and south of the Ancre, reaching the outskirts of Grandcourt. Thereafter there was a sort of a lull until December 11.

An anxious scholar and a dutiful son, exhibiting ideals of life not always to be found in one as young, John Wilson was a general favourite with his fellow-pupils, as well as with those who were his seniors; and the announcement of his death on the field of battle evoked great regret and deep sympathy for his parents, of whom he was their only child. Killed in action on the 25th May, 1917, Private John Law Wilson, Royal Scots, aged 20, only son of Benjamin and Mrs Wilson, Kingledoors, Broughton. This gallant young lad joined the army at the beginning of the war, on the 10th December, 1914, and would not have been eighteen years of age until the 28th of January, 1915. He went into the offensive on Easter morning, the 9th of April, 1917, and engaged in two very severe battles at that time. The third battle that he fought in was less severe, as his very last letter stated. It was dated the 23rd May (two days before he fell), and in it he said — “Still in the trenches, but having an easy time.” On coming out of his second battle, there were left but three only out of the draft he went out with. Referring to his last engagement, his officer said that John was killed instantaneously by a shell while gallantly fighting on the Scarpe, near to Arras, and that his loss was keenly felt by all his comrades. He was a machine-gunner in the Second Ninth Royal Scots. “My boy was a good boy, loved and adored by all who knew him, and his death was a great blow to his parents, as he was our only boy.” He did not fight long, only from the 9th of April, 1917, until the 25th of May.

Wishart, William Muir, 2/Lt William Muir Wishart was born at 3 Mulberry Place in Edinburgh on 22 May 1885. He was educated at the prestigious George Heriot’s School and in 1911 William’s time was divided between working as an Insurance Clerk and as a part time student. He had been attending Edinburgh University, and on 26 November 1915 whilst he was employed as an actuarial clerk, William visited the recruiting office on Frederick Street and enlisted under the Derby Scheme with the 9th Battalion Royal Scots. Private 6576 William Muir Wishart was described as being 5 feet 5½ inches in height, weighed 10 stone 3lbs and with good physical development and was sent to the army reserve on 1 December. Six months later on 14 June 1916 William joined the Edinburgh University Officers’ Training Corps, serving as a Cadet Private. A formal application to join an Officer Cadet Unit was made and was duly accepted and William was sent to join the No.8 Officer Cadet Battalion at Lichfield on 5 October. On 24 January 1917, William’s commission came through, and he was appointed the rank of Second Lieutenant in the 8th Battalion Seaforth Highlanders. The position was gazetted a month later on 26 February, and overseas service followed shortly afterwards when William joined his battalion in France on 19 March 1917….[continues] See ‘Wisharts Who Served’ http://www.scotlandswar.ed.ac.uk/sites/default/files/pdf_Wishart.pdf see also http://wishart1418.org/2nd-lt-william-muir-wishart-1885-1974/ ‘Although he enlisted with the 9th, I don’t believe William Muir ever actually joined them as he was still a cadet at the time and gained his commission with the Seaforths’ Scott Wishart – Seaforths 2/Lt, Lt VM&BWM France 19.3.17. 38 Gosford Place, Edin.

Young, Charles, Srgt, ‘A’ Coy, No. 2 Platoon     See also EED 26 Apr 15 C. Young                 Charles Young. Dated 26/4/15. Third image: Intimation has been received in Edinburgh that Sergeant Charles Young “A” Company, who resided at 3 Caledonian Place, Edinburgh, was killed in action on the morning of the 20th inst. Prior to the war Sergeant Young was in the service of the GPO, Edinburgh, where he commenced as a telegraph lad. He was married in the beginning of June last year, and a baby girl was born to him the day after the battalion left Edinburgh. Mrs Young had just posted a photograph of the child to her husband, and the letter would reach France the day on which Sergeant Young met his death. Mrs Young has received a touching letter from Colonel Blair, commanding the “Ninth”, in which he says – “I knew your husband well and liked him much – for his personal charm as well as his devotion to duty. Poor fellow he kept his head a little too long above the parapet, and a German sniper must have been on the watch, for he received a bullet in the head and died almost immediately. His body will be removed to-night and brought back to the little cemetery at the edge of the wood, where he will sleep his last sleep alongside several of his comrades and amid the incessant roar of the guns of both sides and the whistle of bullets. A cross with his name and regimental number will be erected to his memory, and you may be sure his last resting place will be reverently cared for.” Lieutenant Paulin, in a letter of sympathy to Mrs Young, says – “By the death of your husband the battalion has lost one of its best sergeants and also the men of No. 2 platoon a true friend.” – One of the youngest sergeants in the battalion, was shot through the heart. Before the war he was a postman having been in the service a good many years, commencing as a telegraph lad. Married only a month or two before mobilisation he leaves behind a widow and a baby girl, born after the bn had gone to the front.

He was mentioned in Sir John (now Lord) French’s Despatch of 31 May, 1915. for gallant and distinguished conduct in the field. His commanding officer. Col. (now Brigadier) D. Callender wrote : ” He was so brave always, so devoted to his duty, such a favourite with both officers and men, that he will be the greatest loss to the regt. In all my 28 years’ experience I have never met a young officer who promised so well. He was so keen, so absolutelv reliable that I do not see how I can ever replace him. He was hit by a shell killing him outright, so did not suffer at all.” and again “He was one in a thousand. I had some time before recommended him for the Military Cross for his constant good word and bravery. He so thoroughily deserved it “; and Private J. T. Devlin : “Your son, Mr. Young, joined my company when he came out to India ; when we were ordered for active service he took charge of our platoon, and I took over Observer to him and was by his side when he was killed. .My job in the trenches was to go with the late .Mr. Young wherever he went, and believe me he was as brave an officer as ever walked on to the field. I may state here that he was known in the company as the best officer in it and he only missed four days in the trenches, when he went down to Rouen for a draft of new men, and then the men could be heard saying, “ Oh, how I wish Mr. Young was here ; you could always trust your life in his hands.”” Capt. Lucas of the 9th Battn. also wrote: “He told me he didn’t like burying his men without saying a prayer, and he just made one up as he went along. For his sympathy in this way, these rough lads loved and respected him. I was with them in the trenches at St. Eloi. and I could see very plainly they would do anything for Norman. He was straight, dead straight in his dealings, and had no affectation or false pride about him. and that is what we all like, simple, true, honest, and with a kind and generous heart ; to know him was to love him. Already we in the 9th Royal Scots had hoped that in the future he would be our Adjutant, and that shows better than words can tell what we thought of him.” Roll of Honour, Ruvigny, Vol I – Lt Norman M.
