Hi All

Prior to Saughton prison taking its first prisoners circa 1920 they were housed at Calton which closed in 1926.

Hi Bruce,

Do you have a link please?

This looks to be an expensive trail for my chap as the story may have been mixed up with someone else in the family &/or he may have moved to another area following a split?

There's nothing on NRS pointing to him (no precognition) i.e. I'm having doubts on a few things & for now it's an enigma as to what happened to him, where he went etc?
