Hi Jamie thank you for responding. Do you by chance remember any stories about a ship Captain James Pittullo, he lived there from about 1787 to about 1795 when he sold it. Are there any buildings from when he owned it still standing, I'm curious about the old garage I guess it would be from the old photos I have seen.

Any information you have or can remember is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

GR2 thank you; you truly are amazing I have had these documents for almost a year and have struggled to find someone to help. Then I found this wonderful site and the worker elves are the best  helpers.
I have included 5 and 6, after these there are 6 more pages if it's to much I understand you have already done so much.

Cheers.

I think the three men appointed were friends from East India, because I don't think his daughters were ever married. I have found on his daughter Agnes and Helen is that they died relatively young, Agnes died at the age of 21 at Baird 1796, but I think it is more like Bairn. She is buried in the same cemetery as her father as to Helen I found an article that said she died in London 1799, but it did not say her age. I have ordered a letter from the British Library written to her from A david something in India, but I do know that both articles did use Pittullo as the last name and stated that their late father was James Pittullo and no mention of husbands, unless I'm missing something.
As to Cecilia I don't think they were married and if they were it would probably have been in India, I did find a death for a Mrs. Pitullo relict of (blank) died in 1798 in Calton Hill.

I have found a lot of information, but the holes are so frustrating. In two years I hope to visit Scotland and London, and then maybe I can fill the holes...LOL

Thanks again everyone.

YES G2R you are a rockstar. I does confirm that he did own Coats, that he was late From East India, so now I can definitely confirm he was there. I'm posting pages three and four to see if they have anymore helpful information. Thank you.

Thank you all so much; you are all fabulous.
