Hi,

I was brought up in Galashiels and Mossilee is an area on the edge of town. I suspect that in the 19th Century this would be farm land (and Mossilee Farm still exists).

I think that Mofsilee is an incorrect transcription of Mossilee.

Lesley,

RE: TODDs. Thanks for the info. I had Elizabeth Todd in my tree, but didn't have the marriage to George Gibson or death details, so much appreciated. 

Mike.

Doyle, O'Neill (Clare, Ireland)

Hi 'Lass,

I can't answer your question, but do any of your Woods link up with the ones in my familiy tree (Todd) i.e.

Gen1: James Wood m Betty Dixon
Gen2: John Wood m. Agnes Aitcheson (1808, Eccles)
Gen3: Mary Wood m. James Cockburn (1850, Hume)
Gen4: Mary Wood m. George Todd (1870, Stichill)

George Todd is my Great Great Grandfather.

I need to sort out the Woods in my trees!

Hello Lesley,

I've searched the Borders Family History Society gravestones index (www.bordersfhs.org.uk) and it says there are three surname TODD stones in the Eccles m.i. volume. Could you supply details of these (or any TODDs)? Thanks greatly.

Mike.
