Biography

This profile is part of the Jamieson Name Study.

Given that James was married in Dec 1823, and assuming that was his first marriage and he was then a young man, it is estimated he was born about 1800, presumably in Scotland. ^[1]

Marriage Banns were proclaimed for James and Hannah Hodkinson in December 1823. At that time, they were both living at 7 Dalrymple Place, Edinburgh. His occupation was noted as Flesher [Butcher or Meat Seller]. ^{[1] [2] [3]}

Five or six children were born to James and Hannah between 1824 and 1840. (John Jamieson, who resided with Hannah in 1841, has not been confirmed.)

Since James did not appear in the 1841 Scotland Census with his wife Hannah and their children, it is suspected that he died before then.
