Notes

Note

Hannah Braidwood was born on April 3 1772, and baptized on May 8 1772 at St. Cuthburt's in Edinburgh. She was the daughter of James Braidwood, a carter, and Elizabeth Berry. In 1792, Hannah married James Mann. They had at least three children: William, James, and Elizabeth.
The 70 year old widow was living at 15 Gifford's Park, with Jessie Anderson, age 30, in 1841.
Hannah died of old age in 1847, at the age of 75. Whoever provided the information did not know her late husband's name, which argues against one of her children being around at the time of her death.

Photographs were taken of Gifford Park in the 1920s, before the slum area was demolished, and can be seen on the National Library of Scotland website. There was no picture of No. 15, but most of the buildings on the street had a similar look.
