Do you happen to know of any other 1841 transcriptions of other parishes in Berwickshire?
    I'm afraid not. There's not that many folk doing 1-place studies on the scottish side of the Border as yet - the only other Berwickshire one that comes to mind is Viv Dunstan (Coldingham), and I don't know whether she's transcribed the census.
    I can proudly boast that once I get the '71 finished, I only need about 20 houses in the '51 to have the complete set (somehow last summer, I thought I'd done them and then got back to Holland before I found that I only had the Heads....)
    If that should be 1850s rather than 1950s, let me have a few names (possible to the Berwickshire forum as I look at it more often) and I'll check the '51 & '61, and my other databases (OPR index, BMDs, etc).

    No, I meant the 1950's, as I used to go there as a boy to help with the harvest.

    Pity. I've not managed to get too far out of the 19th century, apart from the war memorials.
