Hi CaledonC,



Would you please look for James Armitage born 1861 in Huddersfield West Yorkshire. I'm sorry I don't have a location in Scotland for him.



Many thanks

You still willing to do a look up for someone? If so could you look for me a James John McBeth b 26-Mar-1841. I think he may still have been land steward at Stobhall house in Perthshire in 1881.(he was in 1871). Thanks!!
