History
Dorothy M. E. Jamieson (or Jameson – records vary) was born 24/3/1894. From 1912-1913 she is registered as a day student of Drawing and Painting, changing to a day student of Design in 1913-14, and back to a day student of Drawing and Painting in 1914-15. Her address in 1912 is given as Clydeview, Balshagray Avenue, Partick West (one of the fine merchant houses in Whiteinch which was destroyed in the 1960s to make way for the motorway*), changing to Glenwood, Langside Road, Newlands in 1914.
Records* indicate her parentage to be that of James Steele Jamieson (a Grocer, Wine Merchant, Italian Warehouseman and Agent) and Nellie Armour Brown (nee Wiseman) Jamieson. These records also list her as having two younger sisters, Edith B. (born 1897) and Ada Constance (born 6/11/1901). The 1901 census records indicate that the household had a live-in domestic servant (named as Janet L. Russell). This, and the nature of Dorothy's addresses, would indicate her family to be one of means.
