Hi Bethan, if time/credits has not run out, could you look for the following for me please? Elizabeth McLeish, born to Charles McLeish, Midlothian, Scotland, possibly Canongate area. Elizabeth married David Hume sometime before 1835. Anything about them or John McIntosh, hatter, married sometime before 1832ish, to Mary?, same area of Midlothian. John Mcintosh born approx 1832 to John McIntosh, hatter and Mary?, again same area. Sorry if this is too much to ask, but they do say you've gotta be in it to win it!!. Thanks, Carol.

I have some credits left over that need to be used up in the next hour or so - let me know if you have a query on either the census or parish records that they have on this site and i will look for as many as my left over credits will allow.
