Help with addresses in Leith & Elgin.

I can't see anything that will show many letters that it could include but there's this

[James Griffin]

Searching public member trees on Ancestry I discovered one member had John's address as 31 Primrose Street and Margaret's as 14 Gilman Street Edinburgh.
Both were born and resided in Elgin to just before the marriage and I assumed Margaret's address was in Elgin but looking at it now I think it's Edin, abbreviated for Edinburgh.
As usual I want to say thanks to all for the efforts - much appreciated as always!

Hi James yes John's address was 31 Primrose Street, Leith.

In the 1881 Census he was a boarder at this address. Living with his married sister Eliza/Elizabeth Munro.

Primrose Street was demolished in the late 1960's early 1970's to make way for the houses you will see today.

Thanks for that final piece of information - that puts it beyond doubt for that address and I'm really pleased to have been successful again with my request!
