Dear Fionnagal, I think they lived in Coldstream but were buried at Cornhill as they had all lived at Donaldson's Lodge. Andrew died 10th May 1865, buried 13th May. Agnes died 22.2. 1885 in Gateshead, buried at Cornhill 25th feb. 1885.If I'm right about the death it seems unlikely he was a witness unless earlier in the year.He had a son Andrew who would be about 19 in 1865.
