I know I have come across references to Rothesay Baths in reading 19th century copies of the local newspaper, The Buteman. Looking through the 1881 census I am wondering if you are referring to Glenburn House, which at that time was a spa, run by a Dr Moffat, or the Hydropathic Establishment on Swanston Hill, Port Bannatyne, where the person in charge on the night of the census was Elizabeth Malcolm, supervisor and manager. There is no William Paterson at either place. Both these places eventually became hotels. I think Glenburn House is still in business, but the Hydropathic Establishment was torn down during the 1990s. If no one else on the list can come up with more relevant information for you, I suggest getting in touch with the History Group at Rothesay Museum by snail mail. I am sure one of the people in the group can come up with some details. /cheers Pat ----- Original Message ----- From: "greateau" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2000 9:54 PM Subject: Dr William PATERSON, Rothesay > A Dr William PATERSON ran a 'baths establishment' in Rothesay c1840-60. > > Is anyone able to tell me anything about Dr Paterson in Rothesay and what/where his 'baths establishment' was? > > Any help/guidance would be appreciated. > > John Platt > > > ==== ButeshireGenWeb Mailing List ==== > *********************************************************************** > The Buteshire GenWeb page is at > http://www.rootsweb.com/~sctbutes/ > >
