Hi Sue, If I can piggyback on your efforts, in case there is any connection with any other Listers, it looks as if my SCT ancestry goes back to:- William SANDERSON = Marion HENDERSON at Currie 1781 Their son William SANDERSON bn 1785 = Ann BALLANTINE at St Andrews Edinburgh, 1805. Issue. David bn 1808 Alexander bn 1809 Elizabeth Katherine Family settled at Penicuik - papermakers. David seems to have worked for a paper / timber firm and settled in S WLS. He travelled all over N Europe, (mge in Finland) and Russia. Alexander joined the City of LND Police. He married Jessie ROBERTSON in the City. Jessie was the d/o William, a Farmer, from ???

When you download a page from the OPRs it will invariably contain not just the record you wanted, but a few other records as well. I thought it would be a good idea to transcribe these rather just leaving them to moulder in my computer files, and actually began transcribing my OPRs for the Angus list quite some while back (most of my ancestors were from Angus and Perthshire). However, I also have ancestors from Midlothian, the main names being URQUHART, ROBERTSON and KERR (from Dalkeith and South Leith). Best wishes, Sue
