Your friend lives in Pumpherston,Midlothian! I watched with great interest last nights program and I was left wondering why didn't Jeremy Irons follow his direct male ancestor Thomas Irons who he said was born in Dundee early 1800s, if he had found his birth record it would have given his mother & father. I do know Jeremy was more interested in tracing an Irish link.
