I know that Henry Bell and his wife Margaret Young had no children, so any kinship would be through his siblings. My family is rumoured to be related indirectly to Henry also, but so far I haven't been able to make the connection. At some point Henry left Linlithgow and ended up in Glasgow, but I don't know if his brothers moved there with him or not. Unfortunately there are marriage records in the IGI for Thomas Bells in both West Lothian and Lanark, and so far I haven't been able to find any other of Henry's brothers, if he indeed there were any at all.
The Bells in my family come from Paisley in Renfrew.
