The Reading Mercury of April 22, 1843 has a lengthy article detailing an explosion at the Waltham Abbey Powder Mills that resulted in seven deaths. Alexander Tulloh was the previous superintendent of the facility. It's interesting to note that there is mention of Colonel James Cockburn, director of the Royal Laboratory at Woolwich. It is likely that this is either the same man shown in the 1841 census (or his father, given his age/rank). 1851: Lived in Waltham Abbey, ESS with wife Mary Louisa and three servants. 1881: Lived at Tannachie, Ledbury, WOR with niece Ada. G. TULLOH, b c 1849, Nova Scotia, and three servants. According to unverified web sources, Ada Goldsmith WEST was born on Grand Manaan on 13th OCT 1848. Her parents died in 1853 in Washington, DC, and she was taken into the Protestant Orphan Asylum. Alexander TULLOH, had married her sister, Mary Louisa WEST, and having no children of their own, sent for her and adopted her as his own daughter, under the name Ada Goldsmith TULLOH. The name of his house, Tannachie produces an interesting connection in Fasti Ecclesia Scoticanae, under the entry for William FALCONAR. He married Elizabeth TULLOCH, eldest daughter of Minister Alexander TULLOCH of Tannachie, 29 APR 1765. Tannachy, now known as Invererne, is an estate near Forres, Morayshire. Purchased in 1574 from the Abbey of Kinloss by Robert TULLOCH, who was the first Laird of Tannachy, the seventh Laird, Alexander TULLOCH sold the estate in 1772 to Alexander URQUHART for just over 100 pounds, valued at 1.9 million pounds 1 today.. In 1817 the estate was sold to General William GRANT, who built the current structure, Invererne House. After his death in 1832, the estate was sold to Colonel Peter GRANT, who married Mary Ann PETERKIN of Grange, taking the name GRANT PETERKIN. ii.

Inherited father's coffee plantation "Aberdeen" in St. Luke's Parish, Dominica. Aberdeen Journal, 22 SEP 1947 "Government of Dominica. -- Among the West India news brought by the Great Western, and published in our last, we inadvertently gave insertion to the following paragraph, copied from the Morning Herald: - "From Dominica, we learn that the Lieutenant-Governor had left for England. Mr. James Lang (sic) BREMNER assumed the Government, being (says a local paper) the first coloured person of Dominica, who had gained the distinction of representing Majesty." It is likely that this statement has originated in the circumstance of Mr. BREMNER being a native of Dominica, i.e., born in the island; but he cannot in any sense be called a coloured person, as both his parents were natives of this County, and well known in Aberdeen. They went to Dominica early in life, where his father, the late Dr. BREMNER, amassed a handsome fortune, and rose to hold the same office to which the son, Mr. James Laing BREMNER, has now been so honourably and deservedly promoted. We take this opportunity of correcting what must have appeared, to his many friends here and elsewhere, a very ludicrous mistake." iii. (unidentified) Bremner #16849, b. c 1808? in Dominica, West Indies. 15 Died shortly after marriage? Position within William Bremner's family speculative. She married Dugald Stewart Laidlaw #63685.

Charles Bertrand." 1835: Sent letter of thanks to the King for his support after a recent hurricane on Dominica. (Morning Post, London, 13 March 1835). Familiar Letters to Henry Clay of Kentucky: Describing a Winter in the West Indies, by Joseph John Gurney; New York, 1840. Dominica, Page 63 "Among the most interesting of those visits, was that of our friend Dugald Stuart Laidlaw, and elderly planter of great influence in the island, much respected as a liberal patron of education, but one whose habits had long been associated with the old system. He is a large proprietor, and still larger attorney, and has no less than twenty-two estates under his care. The valuable information with which he favored us -- entirely of his own accord -- was to the following effect -"that although his present crops were somewhat diminished in consequence of the slight degree of unsettlement, which took place after the commencement of full freedom, (at the time of planting) he had now no complaint to make -- that the laborers were working well on their old locations -- that not a single instance of squatting had occurred -- that he was conducting his estates on the plan of job-work, which was agreeable and profitable to both parties -- that whereas he had formerly borne the burden of more than two thousand one hundred slaves or apprentices, he now employed only six hundred free laborers -- that he expected to save money by the change -- and lastly, that he was taking measures for enlarging the extent of his sugar cultivation." . iv.

BREMNER, of Streatham, Canaan Lane, announced yesterday, will touch a large circle of friends. Born at Dominica in the West Indies, in 1817, where his father was then acting Governor, he came home at the age of four to live with his relatives in Aberdeen, where he went to school, and afterwards to the University, graduating as A.M. in 1837. From Aberdeen he went to Edinburgh, where in 1840 he took the degree of M.D. and the L.R.C.S.E. He was about to enter the medical department of the army, when an offer of private practice induced him to give up that idea and go to Bombay, where he remained for 13 years, and was twice the recipient of handsome testimonials. Returning to this country in 1853, he lived for several years in Perthshire, finally settling in Edinburgh in 1863. During his whole life he engaged in philanthropic and charitable work -- in Bombay taking a leading part in the conduct of the dispensary there, and during his stay in Perthshire, being connected with Murray's Royal Asylum and local charities.
