Alison, I wondered if you have any other info on Walter, as to parents, etc.? I checked on www.familysearch.com<http://www.familysearch.com/> and found a Walter Scott born in 1770 I believe it was, Father was William Scott, no Mother named. I had a William Scott Jr. who was the cautioneer at the wedding of my Agnes Elliot and Robert Thomson in Selkirk.He was supposed to be from Castleton. I have the idea that the Scotts are married into the Thomson or Elliot family somewhere, probably the Thomsons as he was the cautioneer for Robert, and Robert Thomson was from Roxburgh and Agnes Elliot from Selkirk.On familysearch there are some deaths listed for Walter Scott, but none match for sure the Walter I found born in Roberton. I guess in moving a lot it could be the same person. I'd welcome any more information you may have.

Looking for the death of Walter Scott (wife had children between 1800 & 1821) and his wife Mary (nee Young) I know nothing more about Walter & Mary but hope there may be an MI and age at time of death Alison ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BORDER-request@rootsweb.com<mailto:BORDER-request@rootsweb.com> with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
