Does anyone have access to the the Peebles MIs please?
My gggrandfather was a John Stevenson who married Janet Walker . Janet's parents were James Walker [plowman] and Kathrine Watson who lived at Kings Meadow, Peebles where she was born on 29 June 1803. She married John Stevenson a farm grieve also from Peebles on 21 May 1821 in Eddlestone and 8 June 1821 in Peebles. Apart from their son John my relative they also had sons Robert 25 August 1822 and James 22 February 1824. We think John was working as a grieve at Traquair estate
Any help tracking and of these people gratefully received
