Hi Neil… A belated welcome to the Kintyre Forum.
Sorry for the site’s inactivity. Reading down, just noticed your post.
The first thing that springs to mind is his employment at 'Mister Andrew.'
The term ‘land’ in Campbeltown is/was the building’s owner. Andrew, (obviously a family name) probably rented out a commercial ground-floor property for him to conduct his business. If this was the case, then he must have been listed as tax-payer etc.
My Grandmother Mary MacArthur, lived at 53 Longrow, just opposite her brother who had the Macarthur bakery. (not far from your family..., lol..., I remember as a child, renting bicycles from somewhere near) Note the difference in spelling with their names, while her father was a McArthur. (3 different ways of spelling) The McArthurs had generations of butchers and my Grandmother’s cousin had a butcher’s shop on the same pavement, not far from the road leading left to Springbank. (whisky) Andrew’s Land would have been just opposite.
