First of all thank you Ed! I missed your comment. I'll have a look at the Bains as well.
Skoosh, I questioned the Eatonborough myself, but I'll give Edinburgh a try - it may very well be the answer. I couldn't find many references to an Eatonborough in Scotland, I thought perhaps it might be a reference to Eaton. My great uncle was elderly when he wrote is memoir. He was fairly close, but not totally accurate. Names and dates were slightly off.
Thanks to everyone here for taking the time to help.
