yes, I think the best strategy is to get hold of the films for Jedburgh, including the non church of Scotland records. I notice on the IGI there are a couple of TEMPLEs of an age to be siblings to your George, at Southdean. It would be worth getting the Southdean film too I think. (As an alternative, you could spend a bit of time & cash on Scotland's people, assembling local TEMPLEs into family groups) The advantage of looking at the films is all the extra stuff you get along the way. You get a feel for what is going on in the parish, and if you are very lucky, some extra note or scribble from the minister referring to your family. Still cant work out what that church or chapel is doing on the map before the Church of Scotland one was built. Is it something to do with the Edgerston estate I wonder?
