Both sites are therefore worthy of the attention of the serious researcher ...

Indeed. I am sure there are lots of people all over the world looking forward to the day when all the new MBRG work is complete.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Anne,

I found another French today in Elgin.  Is Ann French, wife of Alex Bain, a relative?  She died in 1942.  If so, I have a photo for you.

Hi,
Sorry for taking so long to reply, my grandfather had a daughter Anne French so if you could send the photo that would be great.
