Hi Gibson

I have made a note of your people and yes maybe there is something in the air in leadhills,one of the newspaper articles on Lucy says that:  'her mother lived to the advanced age of 85, while her father died when 65 years of age'.   Sixty five was probably a pretty good innings for her father, considering he was a leadminer in the early 19th century.
