I wonder if it is our L-224. I suspect the 2 bios I posted may be the same some- how related Beattie family. There they were a bunch of Robsons and Adam Turnbull right on the same page on early census. If you follow the probably unmarried Jane Beatty she is living with L-224 in 1870 possibly if it is the same Jane.-maybe David and John and Jane are children of James.
