What a wonderful link, Aislin. I'm off to add my blacksmiths right away. I have one wheelwright too. It's a great idea.

I got rather excited when I found it. I added my Robert Crawford and will add his father, Hugh, as he was a "Wright", but I still need to gather more information on him. All I have on Hugh Crawford was that he was a Wright and Journeyman born roughly 1781, married to Agnes Paterson and the names of their children.
Inching ever backward.

I think someone has previously mentioned this website. If so, perhaps the Mods could join the two threads together!
