1 Lorne Place Leith Midlothian

[dragongirl]

 I have found a photograph albeit farly modern of Lorne Street   on the streets of Edinburgh  site, could anyone tell me if  Lorne Place  would have been near ?
  A family member    William Shearlaw lived there with his family on  the 1901 Census he was a Dock Labourer .
 Thank you

Thank you Claire
  I`ve downloaded the map to go with the photo of Lorne Street to send to the USA All I need  now is to find the date they sailed to Canada I know they were still in Edinburgh in
1919 because a baby was born to Isabella Shearlow but the family were in Vancouver before 1925.Thanks again for your help so many of these streets disapear over the years!!

It would not be proper not to send an image of Lorne Place.  Attached is a view of the street - only three main doors and No.1 is beside the "white van" thus not allowing a decent view.    Top of the picture on the left.

Thank you Zepyhr .
      Had found  some  departures to Quebec on Ancestry  for William Shearlaw obviously the  right family but no dates  given. Some of the family folowed later but before 1925. Thank you again also confirms bith of Margaret 1916.
