"names of first four children are John, James. Janet, Ann
1861 census shows pob as Edinburgh
Anne's parents John and Janet"
Looks very like his parents could be James & Ann.
What about the other children as their names could help too with names being passed down, eliminating names from Anne's side etc. i.e. use all angles for possible help in identification?
