1881 Census The widowed Janet Howat was still living in Ironwork Square in 1881 with her married daughter Grace Bruce and three of her children, Janet, Robert and Lillias. The two illegitimate children of Janet’s daughter Euphemia were also living in the household. Grace’s husband William was not present but seems to have been working as an agricultural labourer at Burn, a couple of miles away to the south of Galston. 1891 Census By 1891 the 74 year old Janet Howat was living alone in Ironwork Square. The previous year her son-in-law William Bruce had died (8 Oct 1890) of peritonitis and a ruptured liver. Her widowed daughter Grace was living with her children a few miles away in Sornhill Village. Janet Howat died on 25 Mar 1898 in Maxwood Rows, Galston. This was accommodation for coal miners at the Maxwood Pit. The 1901 Census shows that Janet’s grandson Robert Bruce, a collier, was living in Maxwood Rows. The witness John Paton was the second husband of Janet Bruce (1871 - 1941) who was Janet Howat’s grand-daughter.
