Hi Sheena

thank you; in infuriation last year, I went to Hawick Register Office after getting hot and bothered at Wilton-such a large place!

They directed me to the plot and I have a photo of me standing on a piece of grass!

Poor George had such a hard life losing all 4 of his sons and his first wife; I have yet to find out what happened to William's sisters. George died in 1930.

Thanks again for taking the bother.
