Alexander Haddow

The family moved to Broxburn, West Lothian, where his father ran Green Tree Tavern, a small bar and hotel.

[3] At age 10, Haddow fell ill with scarlet fever and remained frail and introverted.

He was much impressed by the family GP, Dr Alexander Scott, who treated him on both occasions and became his role model.

[citation needed] Dr Scott was known for his studies of skin cancers in the local mining population.

[2] After the death of his first wife, he remarried in 1970 to Mrs Feo Standing (née Garner; died 30 January 2013), a scientific photographer, 22 years his junior.
