Fife / NEW ADAMSONS' POLICE RECORD
« on: Sunday 18 December 05 23:25 GMT (UK)  »
FAIR COP ADAMSONS!! I'm looking for anyone with an interest the Adamsons in Cleish, Kettlehill and Kennoway throughout the 19th and 18th centuries. The family went on to create a Scottish police dynasty and by the time of my father's death in the 1980s to hold the British police continuous service record. Late uncle George Middleton Adamson had his portrait painted as recruitment poster for World War 2. Murderers caught, impossible cases solved. In the 1880s my great grandfather George from Cleish was in the newspapers as a top inspector in Edinburgh. Other 19th Century Fife names in the Adamson tree include: Janet Kid(d) married to the first David Adamson about 1750, Cassils,(Cassels), Smalbridge, Law, McNair, Arnot(t),Hutchison,Whyte,Aitken,Henderson, Bouvier, Reddie,McGregor, Coventry, Sheach, Wilkie

Hi Andy. I am trying to find information on an Ann Arnot, born 1813 at Ballingry, Fifeshire. She married John Adamson, a shepherd/farmworker, born in Kennoway, Fifeshire. Any connection with your Arnots?
