Narrative
Charles Tuckey was a music teacher and he would play organ in Edinburgh Cathedral.
He was born at Willow Bank, Newhaven Road, Leith, the son of a Grocer (Assistant) according to the birth certificate.
During WW1 Charles was in the Highland Light Infantry. He was posted to India, which must be seen as fortunate. Had he been posted to the trenches in Belgium the war could have had a totally different outcome for him - and all that have followed.
Charles was in Edinburgh to sign the birth certificate of his first child, Charles Rossiter Tuckey, on July 9th 1915.
At the time of his wife's death in 1945 he was a Clerical Officer in the Department of Health for Scotland. Their address at that time was 10 Boswell Grove, Edinburgh
