There are 15 (well 14 plus a duplicate) matches for people born in Sutton Scotland on Ancestry for 1861 and in the vast majority of cases it is obviously "scotland" on the image. There are a couple of others which are 'possibles'. But what the image of Peter and Allison seems to show is Scotland written twice. I would however just flag up the possibility of Salton or Saltoun - if you put Salton as a keyword into the 1841 ancestry index and choose East Lothian as the county you get about 500 hits, including two sets of three HAMILTONS. cheers Judy On 24 Apr 2007, at 11:02, Leslie Hastings wrote: > Any chance you could post an image?
