Personal Information    |    Sources    |    All    |    PDF

  • Name Eliza Willock DAWSON  [1] 
    • "There is no record in Falkirk parish registers of the births of James' and Jane's next children, Archibald (born c1821), Catherine (born 1823 or 1824), and Eliza Willock (born February 1830), and it can only be presumed that they were born in Persia. Eliza Willock Dawson was named after Eliza, the wife of Henry Willock, the British Charge d'Affaires in Tehran from 17 September 1815 to 1826."
      (From John Mathews article in 'Calatria, The Journal of the Falkirk Local History Society' Spring, 2013, number 29, p87)
