    1. [EDB] Directory lookup(s)?
    2. Alan Baillie
    3. I recently discovered on the wonderful Corstorphine site that there was a David Baillie, Grocer and Spirit Merchant, listed in Colinton in the 1842-43 Directory. I believe this to be my g-g-g-grandfather, whom I'd previously traced only to the Calton area of Edinburgh in the 1820s-1830s. Is there any kind soul with access who could check the Colinton entry for an exact address? (Even, if there's anyone kind enough and with access to enough editions, in other years around then? He was at 10 Calton Hill in 1835 and he's supposed to have died in 1846, though since it was of cholera, I think it might have been a couple of years later when I think there was an epidemic.) If someone could do that, I'd be eternally grateful. Alan Baillie (in Luxembourg)
