I tried the Police, Procurator Fiscal with no luck. On a wonderful trip home to Scotland I went to the Sheriff Court on the Royal Mile as I had recalled going there with my Mother to collect her compensation money. Went to the Archives and they directed me to a building located at the West End and a wonderful lady assisted me and I got a copy of the court records, however, some of the actual paperwork was lost. The Achives personnel should be able to give you the information on the building I was directed to. Goog Luck. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
