Does anyone have any information about the White family in Corstorphine?
I am trying to trace details about my Grandmother's relations. One brother ran an off licence and another an furniture and upholsterers business in Featherhall, Corstorphine. I can just vaguely remember the shop so it probably closed in the mid 1960's. Their father, my great grand father was a builder and his yard was down a Street opposite St Ninian's church.There was a third brother called Norman but I don't know what he did and two sisters: my grandmother Hannah (known as Mabel) and Gladys who had two daughters Penelope and Pamela. If anyone can help me with the missing names and dates, I would be most grateful
