bullet  Events

• Alt.Name. At first I had understood that Janet's surname was LEITH but later I found a statement that she was born in South Leith, Midloyhian, Scotland.
This raises a serious dought that Janet's surname was Leith and I have therefore assumed that it is presently UNKNOWN and changed the record accordingly;
Ralph Anderson..
A later source gave her name as Janet Melvin daughter of David Melvin b.1735 and Jean Ballentine b 1735 and this has been now accepted and entered.
