In the Aberdeen St Clement's cemetry records, published by ANESFHS . Record 388- The family buriel ground of Whinton Routledge manufacturer in Aberdeen & Isaac Routledge. William Routledge d. 14th Dec 1872 whose remains are interred in the Spital (sic)Cemetry. Has three of his children who died in childhood buried here. I have reason to believe that my gg grandfather was employed by the Routledge family and the business was Rope manufacturer. I also have found a note in my ggrandfather's records -William Jamieson Routledge died August 21st 1897 aged 56 years. Money left- £25286-1-11d duty has been paid £987-18-9d. My ggrandfather was James Brown Jamieson. I cannot find a connection to the above, or the connection to our family, or why William's middle name was Jamieson. If you know answers to any of this---
