Hi
Trying to find any info on Blaikie (sometimes Blackie) family in Peebles. Edith Blaikie was head Grocer Bridge End in 1881 census. She was widow of Thomas Blaikie.  My maiden name was Blaikie.
Thanks

hi,
no inerleithen info i'm afraid
No Edith Blaikie, maybe it was after her time, do ou know hen she died? Are there any other family names that could have taken over the business?

Just came across the Postings re Peebles 1906, I have a old friend who has compiled all the shop keepers in Innerleithen as far back as he can obtain the records I will ask him for the info you were asking about, you could also try on the www.freecen.org.uk website for the census info available.
