Hi all,
I'm looking for any photos of my recently discovered great-grandfather, Alexander Elliot (15 Nov 1868 - 14 NOV 1945. Died in Border, Cumberland), or any of his 10 children (11 including my illegitimate grandmother)! The 1939 register has him running Burnside Farm, Hethersgill. He was originally from Hawick, so will ask there, too. He worked at Consett Iron works for many years as a foreman (I know that's Durham!), where I'm originally from. I'm in Sydney, Australia - so visits to the Carlisle archives are not viable. I'm not expecting much, but greatly appreciate any help! Kind regards, Lisa
