Edinburgh, 1836

 

Google Arts & Culture. Edinburgh, 1836.

By now I've been in Edinburgh for a couple of days, exploring the city and seeing Allison's choir perform. Today I have a visit to the University Archives to view the records on John McIntosh, my 5th-great-grandfather. I'm curious to learn more about his time as a medical student before he shipped off to America to serve in the British Army, and maybe learn more about his Scottish roots.
