Peter Smith
« on: Sunday 18 April 10 10:45 BST (UK) »
Hi All,
 

i am trying to find my peter smith living in Scotland, as this is his birthplace on census records, i have the 1901 census which is the only census i can find with a more specific location than just Scotland but i can not read it. I have attached the file for you to look at.

any help would be appreciated.

Kind Regards

Nichol

If you enlarge the image on the site you found it on it is quite readable.

A belated observation.

I agree with Edinbugh as the place.  However, that *seems* to be in a different hand, and a different pen - I don't know if that's significant.
