Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Secretary Hand
« on: Sunday 18 February 24 19:24 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone help with the names of the witnesses on this baptism record for Elspeth Denoon, parents John Denoon and Janet James, in Moray 1716. I can make out Samuel James, John James and Elspeth Simson, but the others have defeated me. If any secretary hand experts out there can help, I'd be very grateful.

World War One / Cross of St George 4th Class
« on: Monday 08 January 24 12:31 GMT (UK)  »
I have recently found that a relative received the Cross of St George 4th Class (London Gazette 15 May 1917 Supplement). He served with the Seaforths and was killed in Iraq on 22 February 1917.

Can anyone help with information on the Cross of St George and why he might have received it? And any thoughts on why it was Gazetted after his death?

Thanks
