Hello Ray I have a possible connection for you--at least I hope it is. My husband's grandmother was Helen Nelson Robertson. She was born May 19, 1901 to Donald Robertson and Helen Gibson. Donald and Helen married Feb 11, 1901. Helen Gibson's parents were John Gibson and Helen Nelson. They were married Aug 5, 1872 in Dunfermline. Do you think there is a connection to your family? I really hope so. Helen Nelson Robertson came to USA in 1923 through Sault Ste Marie Ontario. She settled south of Chicago IL and in Northern Indiana. Her application for citizenship says she came alone. Where abouts did your Nelsons settle in USA? If ours settled in same area then we may have found a reason why she came to USA without her family.

Hi and what a wonderful offer. Would love to know what records are listed for Rogart and Dornoch in Sutherland.

Hi List, Would it be useful to anybody to have the available dates for the OPR's in any particular parish? I have a list that gives all the dates of Birth / Christenings, Marriages & Death's for any particular parish in Scotland. These are the records which are held by the GRO in Edinburgh, so I don't know if the LDS records would cover the same dates etc. However, at least you would know if records exist in the time frame that your ancestors were in a particular parish. If this would be of use to you, let me know the parish/s. Regards, James Motion Scotland. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Does anyone here know what church Rev. Nahum Levison was minister of in Edinburgh? -- Ian Russell Ontario, Canada

Dear Listers, Trying to contact descendants of NEILSON, Hogg died about 1906 in or at Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland. I am a descendant of his siblings who immigrated to the US in the 19th Century. Any info on how to contact or leads to the same would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much. Ray L Nelson

Just received from central command. Appearing here with the permission of list administrators only. Maybe we can all get back to the task at hand and belay the virus memos.

Hello! I have ALEXANDER CLARK marry MARY KEITH in 1805 Canongate. I have no information on ALEXANDER CLARK but MARY KEITH b1786 parents were ALEXANDER KEITH and ELIZABETH WILMORE (WILMOTE/WILMOUR) Their 1st child was born 1784. They had 7 children. I have all the children of ALEXANDER and MARY. I am trying to get farther back. Does anyone recognise the names? REGARDS

Alan, Having just returned from researching in Edinburgh and not up to scratch with the list - I don't know if you have this information already - in 1993 I wrote off to Edinburgh City Archives regarding Craiglockhart poorhouse and hospital (where my granny spent some time). They didn't find info. on her but sent me a copy admission sheet for the period I was interested in (1930s) to "provide a flavour of the many reasons for admission". They also sent a description of its beginnings in 1870 when it replaced the Charity Workhouse at Bristo Port following through to its passing into various administrative hands. The records were deposited in the Edinburgh City Archives in 1964 along with various photographs but are by no means complete. If you are interested I would be very happy to send you by attachment the full description which also gives reference numbers to locate the records within their archives. Best wishes, Eileen in Hampshire

Good afternoon Edinburgh, I have some new information on my McBean family that lived in Edinburgh (1850s) and was attempting to research street names. The site that spoke to old street names was, I believe, at http://www.edinburgh.org.uk/. It appears the site is down or has moved as I have tried access for several days without any luck. Can anyone give an update on this web site? Bob

Hello List, Does anyone have access to the 1851 census for Edinburgh/Leith? I am looking for my great great grandparents Alexander Stewart and Joan(ne), hopefully with children Alexander, Janet (Jessie) and John. Alexander and Joan(ne) were married in 1828 but I do not know Alexander's age. Joan(ne) would be about 47 years, Janet 16, and John 12. Thanks in advance. Gil. Hall.
