Watsons

My mother was Jane Watson (1904-82) illegitimate daughter of Bessie McAlister (1883-1961) and John Watson. She was brought up by her grandmother at 10 Broad Street with her likewise illegitimate cousin Ellen (Nellie) Orr/Morrison (1908 - 1981).
John Watson, a farm labourer, is proving difficult to identify. There were a number of Watsons in Campbeltown at the time, and possible candidates, but no solid evidence. Any clues about a Watson on a farm near Campbeltown in October/November 1903 would be most welcome.
