Notes:

There is a claim that this John Silver was acquainted with the author Robert Louis Stevenson when he spent time in Braemar and, hence, the likely source of his Treasure Island character Long John Silver. Seems to be correct given that John Silver lived at Braemar and Stevenson visited there in 1881; before Treasure Island was published.

• Census: 1861, Kintoulin, Maryculter, Kincardineshire, Scotland, UK
• Will: 19 Sep 1865, Kincardineshire, Scotland, UK

Notes:

James was was a tenant farmer at Shanchenshaw, Fetteresso, from before 1840 to 1852, where he paid sums of ?68 (for land?) and ?1 (for house?) to his landlord and cousin George Silver. He then farmed at Kintoulin 1852-1865, where he had 106 acres and employed two labourers and one boy. He died aged 54* on 30 May 1865 at Kintoulin (Kintewline, Maryculter) (Banchory Devenick grave 93 p.20). He was the third child of Alexander Silver and Elizabeth Stirling who were married at Banchory Devenick on 28 August 1803 (contracted 6 August).
*Note that he would have been 57 based on baptism record. Either the age is wrong or perhaps the James baptised 1808 (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XBHQ-7DQ) died young and he is the "second" James born to Alex Silver and Elizabeth Stirling.

*No known birth for a Josephine Silver C1891 but Jane Campbell did have a baby named Mina Jardine Duthie CAMPBELL or SILVER on 25 Apr 1890 and the birth cert states Alexander Silver was NOT the father.
So, working premise is that Mina becomes Josephine Silver and is assumed as Alex's child for purposes of the census/respectability. Between 1890 and 1895, the couple seem to have reunited given the birth of Jessie in 1896.

NOTE: There is conflicting information in this death record including his age and mother's married name. However, on balance, this appears to be the correct Alexander Silver based on his wife's name and daughter's name.
