***alviegal*** thanks for that, very interesting and looking at various items about Barrachnie it would seem to be the correct place name as opposed to the Brachney I had, whether this will assist me trace details of William Reid and Janet Cunningham only time will tell.

Thanks Again,

Jim

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

mgnv - thanks for the links, interesting, will be spending a bit of time on SP today trying to trace information on William Reid and a Janet Cunningham/Cuningham, without using up to many credits.
