Oh dear, there are two marriages within a day (?) of each other:

1 03/10/1808 WHITE ALEXANDER JEAN RICHARDSON/FR4684 M Canongate EDINBURGH CITY/MIDLOTHIAN 685/003 0170 0230 VIEW (5 CREDITS) ORDER

2 02/10/1808 WHITE ALEXANDER JEAN RICHARDSON/FR1095 M North Berwick /EAST LOTHIAN 713/ 0040 0326

The first in canongate gives a father for jean of Thomas richardson a carrier, but there are no other details on the other. So no name for alex unfortunately.

Regards Linda :)
