Dear Friends, If I may , could I add to my last posting with a little information that has just come to light. Have just learned that Isabella BARNES was married to WILLIAM RUSSELL a Coal Miner on 28.4.1878 at BERWICK on TWEED. They lived at Beatties Row Tranent and JANE DRYSDALE RUSSELL was born on 28.5.1885. It appears that her second given name must be from her grandmother from either side of the family. Many thanks for the wondereful leads/help I have already had from kind people.
