Hi Skye

I have a John Low in my tree.  Born approx 1809 in Edzell.  Parents David Low and Jean Jolly.  He died on 27/12/1864.  Could this be Elizabeth's dad?  Long shot I know

Hi Bobo,
Many thanks for reply. Unfortunately not same John Low. Mine died in 1872 and parents were William Low and Christina Findlay.
Happy hunting,
Regards Skye.

Hello Skye,

My great grandfather is Alexander Crofts Duthie, definitely the same as the one in your list. I imagine you know loads by now. Nonetheless, I have some interesting photos and things if you are interested. ACD worked in Pardubice in Bohemia for Countess Marie Larisch (who appears in Eliot's Wasteland). I'm interested to know how you know he worked as an Engineer. He was indeed a Traction Engine Driver on his return to Scotland but our word of mouth has him as perhaps an estate manager.

All best,

Dorian
