Wee Lassie and All Blacks,
An hour to spare, another brief look for ancestral clues and a few keystrokes led me unexpectedly to Wee Lassie's 2011 request for information about Milne Square Edinburgh. Being a descendant of John and Maria (via Thomas) I was very curious to see what other information was available so I have just registered and found your exchanges on Maria's parentage. This is where my part-time research drew a blank some years ago.
To come across other family members on this side of the tree exchanging information is a new experience for me so it's going to be interesting to read through what has been said. Perhaps I'll be able to fill in a gap or two and maybe you'll allow me to ask the odd question where I draw a blank?
For the record I had hoped to find Milne Square on a visit to Edinburgh a few years ago, but I think it now lies underneath an Italian restaurant!. I recall there were however a couple of other addresses of family members from the 1800s still in existence.
Regards,
