Thankyou ever so much for deciphering his records for me. I had problems reading half of it. Some of it seemed to blend in with other bits of writing.
Its looking like he was 'fostered' out then , I wonder who Elizabeth black is?? She's practically the same age so I'm guessing its not his sister. I'm unsure on why hes put older bro George as next of kin?? Ive been looking on scotlands people and there's a Mary Black aged 16 listed as a dairymaid in the 1881 census. I cant read though who that Mary is with but there's alot of children , nurse , and other farm servants. Want me to send the file??
