Anyone perusing my Watson side of my family tree will notice middle names, sometimes systematic as for predecessors, usually maternal, or other inspiration. Much as one of cousins is named after a film star.
"Skirving" is one as is "Scott". But where did "Boswell" come from? Or "Talbot".
The first "Talbot" in my ancestry is Thomas Talbot Watson who was born in Poland to Alexander Scott Watson and Agnes nee Kedslie. We then find the name recurring with Talbot Scott Watson. I find no links to other family and ancestry, but do find a reference in a letter by his father about frequent visits to a Mr Talbot. Whether he is just a close family friend or a relative on the Kedslie side, I have yet to ascertain.
