Hi Anne

Another surname to look for............................AUDREY

Just found them on the 1851 census disc for West Lothian.

After many variations of Andrew(s) I left out the surname and looked for first name James, 25 years old +/- 3 years in Bo'ness and found the family.

Needle in a haystack comes to mind.

Cheers
