 Have you tried the IGI, SP or the trades directory?
 I do not know anything about these directories, but I do believe that there is a link to them at the front of  Scotland General. Or maybe write to the council offices, I managed to obtain copies of the Lord provosts from both Edinburgh and Glasgow in this way.
I would check sp for you but until after the 13th this month I have no credits.

Hi chrisofmelb,

Charles was born 22 Dec 1836 St Cuthberts, Edinburgh to parents William Ritchie and Margaret Brown, found on IGI as a submitted record. IGI also has marriage on an extracted record.

Did they move from Edinburgh?

Hi Marcie,

I have all the information from Scotlands People so please do not waste your credits.  I will follow up with the council offices regarding his registration as a solicitor.  Thank you for your help.
kind regards
Christine
