James Comber Nash Marshall 3
![]()
Died at Dank's Model (?) in Grangemouth (according to Leonard James Marshall, snr). There was apparently a building on Grange Street (Leonard died at 8 Grange Street) called "Devlin's Model lodgings": "To the right of the Queens Hotel were shops including Woods the Chemist. Then came the west end of Grange Street containing the Railway bar and Devlin's Model lodgings as well as railway workers housing." Not sure if these are one and the same.
Shares same middle names as James Comber Nash Watson (born 17 January 1876 at Slamannan, Stirlingshire). Since James Comber Nash Marshall's father came from Slamannan, it is very likely that the Marshall and Watson families were very closely acquainted. James Comber Nash Watson's grandfather (George Batchelor Nash) and his family were also recorded in the 1851 census as living in Slammanan. 9 10
