Basic Biographical Details

Name: John Watherston
Designation:  
Born:  
Died:  
Bio Notes: From 31 December 1918 John Watherston was the sole partner left in the family firm after the retirement of Robert Henderson Watherston on that date. It is unclear at present whose son John was. It is also unclear when he joined the firm but it must have been well before the retirement of James Henderson Watherston. J G Watherston who was the son of Robert Henderson Watherston, was married to Bethia Dundas Jardine in June 1935. However he was not the John Watherston who had taken over the family business in 1918.

[Work from 1920 has been linked to John Watherston but this needs to be confirmed]
