Hi Mike, Here is what I read before I had the advantage of your email! There was an S on ATKIN >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Edinburgh, Canongate 685/3/31 page 5 Old Church except North(?) Side from 242 - 254, inclusive. Embracing Pirrie's Close and Gibb's Close. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. 4 Pirrie's Close - 2 rooms with one window or more. John ATKINS Head, M, 30.. ..Gold Beater, born England Emma ATKINS, wife, M, 29...........born England Matilda ATKINS, daur, 4, scholar... born England William ATKINS, son, 2,.... born England Eugenie (?) ATKINS daur, 1mo,.... born Edinburgh John BRANNON, Boarder, M 29, Gold Beater ...born Edinburgh Maud(?) BRANNON, Boarder, M, 25, Boarder.. born Manchester Emma BRANNON Boarder, 11months..... born Edinburgh. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (?) means I stuggled with the word and it is open to interpretation. 2 of us looked at Eugenie. So we should have read Sarah! I wrote no 4. Perhaps it was 6. There were several households at each number. I didn't see Thomas. I looked at the rest of Pirrie's Close and didn't notice any other ATKINs. Hope this helps but I could look again another time if you want me to check or try to send you a copy. The machines with printers were busy.
