WIGHTMAN Hynd in Alomill? and Son of the deceased John WIGHTMAN Hynd in East Renton and Isabell SCOTT daughter of Willm. SCOTT weaver in Coldingham having been lawfully proclaimed were this day married. I am looking for information on the parents of ISABELL and any possible information on the WIGHTMANs. PS.

ANDREW CURRIE Carter and ELIZABETH DAVIDSON JOHN DOW and JANET FAIR WILLIAM ROBERTSON and MARG PURVES ARCHIBALD WINGTON and MARY LAURIE Best Wishes, From, Michael In NORWAY.

Hi Lesley, >This thread prompts me to mention Rutherford's Southern Counties Register >and Directory. I don't know how often it was originally published, but the >1866 edition was re-published by the Borders Regional Council in 1990 (isbn >0951675605). In it, the publishers mention that their first edition was 10 >years before. Apart from frequent mention of the activities of this Kelso >branch of the firm (and pages of wonderful adverts), it gives gazetteer-type >info on each town and village in Berwickshire, Selkirkshire and Roxburgh, >then adds lovely info such as lists of businesses, registered voters, >amenities (number of shops, library, inns, etc). >I've never seen new it in the shops, but it does turn up in the second hand >book shops. An Australian bookseller sells microfiche versions of the ROX and SEL county sections of the 1866 Rutherfurd's directory - see under Directories on the GENUKI county pages for further details. I haven't seen these but fear that they could miss out the general introductory material and also all the wonderful adverts at the end. However for parish-by-parish entries the fiche are probably more than adequate. The same Australian bookseller also sells microfiche copies of many other old directories, including for the Scottish Borders the 1837 Pigot & Co's directory, and I've bought the fiche of that directory for ROX, BEW, SEL and PEE - very handy they are too, although not as detailed as the later Rutherfurd's 1866 directory. For that I'm clinging on fervently to my 1990 reprint (and to think I once had 2, as my mother subscribed to buy me a present, without knowing I'd subscribed as well!) Viv Dunstan

Harold, Saw your reference at the end of your recent email referring to the surname, Teesdale. I know someone in Nova Scotia who has been researching the surname, Truesdale, Trudale.........Would this be the same family of names? If so, I can get in touch with this person so that you and he can possibly make some connection......if there is one to be found. Marie Nova Scotia

Reposting another SCOTT; Thomas, an iron forger, who married Jane EWING in Glasgow c1820. He was supposedly from the Borders, possibly near Melrose. Would he have learned his trade there or more likely in or near Glsagow? Jane EWING was originally from Dundee and related to Sir Alfred EWING, physicist and Professor at both Dundee and Edinburgh but we are drawing a Blank on Jane also. John Edmonds Still seeking Gilbert BURN and Elenor YOUNGER who married in Carham in 1797, came to Australia c1832 then disappear from the Australian records.
