Hi Sammye, I talked to James BISSETT about this yesterday. He actually visited Scotland and says that he saw a sign with this name. He insisted that the location is at/near Edinburgh, but he would not insist that the name he saw actually ended in 'shire'. If we can properly source the line I'm sure he would accept your analysis and work. I did some preliminary IGI look-ups on line with very limited success. Where did you get your information, and could you send it to me so I don't waste time duplicating your work? :-) Do you want the stuff he sent me and what I've dug up? I can scan it in and e-mail it to you. It's not that much work. Regards, Joe At 10:29 AM 09/13/1999 -0700, you wrote: >Joe, > That is incorrect. He was from Perth,Scotland. Was born in Perth.
