Thomas Haig died on 19.9.1905, and Margaret Haig on 22.11.1935.

My thanks to Meurig for sending me his death registration.
.
To the right of Private Haig's age is roughly inscribed what may be NO 257. I didn't notice anything similar on any other headstone I looked at in the cemetery, but it may be just an identification number for the stone.

I couldn't find any press notices of his death; however, Meurig found one in the Jedburgh Gazette, of 24th March 1900. Note the incorrect cause of death.
...."At Cape Town, South Africa, on 4th inst. (of enteric fever), Pte. Charles Thomas Haig, 2nd Dragoons (Scots Greys), only son of Thomas and Margaret Haig, West Boldon, CountyDurham (late of Jedburgh)."

Charles himself was born in the Castle Ward registration district, third quarter of 1874 - Castle Ward registration district was in Northumberland, immediately north of Newcastle upon Tyne.

He's also named on Boldon's ABW memorial plaque in St Nicholas' Church, West Boldon, and, as A. Haig, on the Scots Greys memorial in Edinburgh.
