Where is Wester Fa’syde?
« on: Wednesday 25 November 15 21:18 GMT (UK) »
In an Tranent OPR (provided by Tidybooks) for Agnes MacKenzie. it indicated “Alexander Mackenzie in Wester Fa’syde ....."

I have looked around Tranent and Elphingstone for Wester Fa'syde and Fa'syde and have not been able to find this - anyone have any ideas?

Thanks again

Scott

I think it might be Wester Falside - just to the west of Elphinstone.

It's on this map here: http://maps.nls.uk/view/74400262

Thank you - I did a bit of exploring and found several places mentioned in my ancestor's OPR.
