Hi Terry
Many thanks for a speedy response and those valuable tips. Was about to post on main notice board, with Roxburgh NEW TOPIC, as I've just read, this is the correct procedure.
From rootschat got to freecen and I've just been reading my great grandfather's (40 yr old, William Emonds) discharge papers from 1917. He was slightly more fortunate than others, on this very poignant remembrance day.
Kind Regards
Frank

Hi Terry
I have a copy of census 1841 through 1871 for Parish of Crailing, Roxburgh. I know this is were my ancestors came from, g.g.g.grandparents Elizabeth & William lived there. He was a tailor. Slight difference in age: 1851 census; Crailing William Emonds, 47 yrs old and Selkirk William Emonds, 49 yrs old. Cousins perhaps?
The biggest clue I have and probably the most valuable(personally) is a family Emonds bible. Couple of years past, my mother & father, who live in Linwood, near Paisley, Scotland, received an email from a lady in America saying she had a bible with the Emonds name. Any connection?
I could give her some names and dates (from GROS) that were unbelievably entered in the bible, she kindly donated the bible to myself and family. Bible originally belonged to Alexander Emonds (g.g.grandfather), son of William.There are births, deaths, marriages inscribed on the inner cover dating from 1814 to 1903 relating to Crailing and Glasgow. In fact all the Emonds names that you researched are there.
Bible had been with my parents for sometime and was only returned to me last week, need to a bit more detective work.
Do you think that I should start a new thread EMONDS/CRAILING with this info and would the Heritage Hub be interested in details?
Kind Regards
Frank

Thanks Terry, will do, info needs to be shared and this is a great place to do that 
Bible was found in a junk shop/bric a brac about 20 years ago , somewhere between Glasgow and Aberdeen according to Caroline's sister who bought it for her as a present. I think Glasgow, or would like to think that as that is were I was born, 1964.
She was an American touring the UK . Caroline was decluttering her home in Indiana, U.S.A. before moving to Australia last year and sent the bible back to Scotland, well near enough, Lincs.

Hi Becky
Terry has mentioned that you kindly, might have some info for sharing  on the EMONDS family 1851 Selkirk census. Wondered if they could be some of my ancestors?
Transcript sharing? What is the correct procedure, is it copying details to thread on this site from original documents or posting copies(jpeg's/TIFF) of the original. I've got Crailing census details on Emonds.
Kind Regards
Frank Emonds

Hi Beckey
I did get the census list, many thanks  . Been trying to decipher who's who EMONDS, using some info I have, FREECEN, IGI and Scotland's people this past weekend. Once you get into it, minutes, hours, days, fly by.Managed to find out grt grt grt grandparents; William Emonds and Elizabeth Scott married Aug 1838, Saint Boswells, Roxburgh and grt grt grt grt grandparents; Thomas Emonds and Agnes Frazer married Nov 1811, Melrose, Roxburgh.
At the moment stuck at this particular Thomas Emonds, D.O.B./were born/his parents for the next link in the chain! There seems to be quite a few Thomas's either EMONDS or EMOND and living either in ROXBURGHSHIRE or SELKIRKSHIRE.
Have also just discovered Google My Maps, were you can enter all place names relevant to a project, add photos, enter text etc.
This is a good way of getting an idea of locations of ancestors, for personal use or sharing.
Can't thank you enough, and I'm sure I'll have plenty more queries
