Hi Kate Could you please look for a William Muirsmith b1861 in Stirling. either birth or 1881 census. Cant see him on LDS. This is for a man in his 70's I know, who has an old church window from a church in Edinburgh. The family had the window done in memery of their parents ( his grandparents) On the window it has in memory of William Muirsmith 1861-1933. and wife Hester 1870-1922. she was born on a ship someplace. He got the window back when the church was made into a house. I told him I would have a look thinking there would be something on LDS or even on this site. but there is no surname Muirsmith. thanks for the offer Marion
