Hello: I've found that some of my AItken and Williamson ancestors lived and worked at Hillhousefield, Leith. I see a few references to it but really don't know much about it. Was it an old estate or something? They were there during the 1820' to 1870's +-. Any information about the history of Hillhousefield would be appreciated. Thanks. Bill in Montana

Hello, again, Bill Following on from my earlier email, this is a reference to what happened to the Hillhouse Field estate, and others like it, from the 1860s onwards. http://books.google.com/books?id=-CYhImMjBk0C&pg=PA196&lpg=PA196&dq=Hillhousefield,+Leith&source=bl&ots=ocZRuDrTtz&sig=r8flUH4x2IWbUODxZCPSMaPwJIA&hl=en&ei=JjvsSoG3E87ajQehpbGXDQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=8&ved=0CBkQ6AEwBzgo#v=onepage&q=Hillhousefield%2C%20Leith&f=false Rhoda
