Lanarkshire / John Muirhead
« on: Saturday 27 March 10 22:30 GMT (UK)  »
I need help to find the correct birthdate and names of parents of John Muirhead born abt 1834 [?] Hamilton, Lanarkshire, Scotland.
I am a Kiwi family researcher who is finding it a bit difficult to find info from a distance!
I have a print out of 1861 Census but the writing isn't very clear and I can't make out his occupation- ooh! problems!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

East Lothian (Haddingtonshire) / James Annan Ramsay
« on: Saturday 27 March 10 22:07 GMT (UK)  »
I am searching for particular information about James Annan Ramsay - born 17 February 1856, Lanark, Scotland. He was a lawyer in Edinburgh abt 1880 - 1894 [?]  and apparently was shipped out to New Zealand by his family because  he disgraced them when he committed some sort of crime. His family paid him a remittance to stay away and he was not allowed to practice law in New Zealand.
I am trying to research what his crime was and finding it very difficult as I am a Kiwi and the distance is a stumbling block.
Can anyone help me at all? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.
