Hi Annie
           Thanks again. i don't have any more info on him. i did try a few years ago ask the registry to do a search it cost me 5 pound's  they found nothing so i got my money back.
     It's just a shame that the actual place is not on his army record's
   He was 26 when he joined the85th of foot in london.
         just wish we had some earlier census's.
       Kind Regard's
              Barbara.

Thank you Kay and Anne for you'r replies.
      I did look at the birth in corstofin so ruled that out.
      andrew was married in Grimsby his wife was english.
        the birth i found in Liberton has father Thomas Robertson/sarah Howison.
    these names are in the family Andrew had a daughter Sarah. his son had a boy named Thomas.
         On Andrew's army record place of birth just states St Cuthberts no actual place.
            once again thank you i appreciated you'r help.
                        Barbara.

         He was a chelsea pensioner living in Hull Yorkshire.
          I have been trying for a few years to find his birth with no luck.
            i went into scotland's people and they brought up andrew Robertson b1802 Liberton.
        could this be part of st cuthberts,

 Hi Sharon
              The marriage you found for janet hunter Groat is not my janet. the one you found is
        the cousin of the janet i am searching for.
              The name Hunter groat carries on in the family.
                       Thank you for you'r help.
