Andrew Jameson, Lord Ardwall

Born at Ayr on 5 July 1845, he was eldest son of Alexandra, daughter of Alexander Colquhoun Campbell of Barnhill, Dumbartonshire and her husband, Andrew Jameson, sheriff of Aberdeen.

After an illness of about six months he died, at 14 Moray Place,[2] Edinburgh, on 21 November 1911, and was buried at Anwoth in Kirkcudbrightshire.

[1] Jameson conducted inquiries on behalf of the government, acted as an arbiter in industrial disputes, and was for some years, in succession to Lord James of Hereford, chairman of the board of conciliation, between the coalowners and Scottish Miners' Federation.

[1] In 1875 Jameson married Christian, daughter of John Gordon Brown of Lochanhead and niece of Walter McCulloch of Ardwall in Kirkcudbrightshire, from whom she inherited the estate after which the judge took his title.

The second, John Gordon Jameson, advocate, unsuccessfully contested the 1912 Edinburgh East by-election, as a Unionist.
