Photo request - Train Driver - Reid Family
« on: Wednesday 31 December 08 13:41 UTC (UK) »
James Reid (Furnaceman) was listed with wife Catherine at Corbiehall in the 1851 census.  He went on to become a train driver at Bo'ness.  Does anyone have any photographs of him or any other information.  We have traced him through the census so have all that information.

Any help greatly appreciated.
