Hi I am trying to find out who the parents of twin brothers James & John Yule c.11 April 1752 were.Their father is given as James but there is no mention of the mother's name.They were born in Whitsome & Hilton, Berwickshire.If anyone knows what became of them please get in contact,
Regards,
Melanie.

You may want to go through the marriages in the old parish register (on microfilm) and see if you can find James under a different spelling or such.
In the baptism entry does it give a home or are there witnesses?
the mother's father or brother were oftern the first witness listed.
with the vaired spelling I should would go through the original film of the records.

Hello
I too am trying to research this family. I saw you had mention of Edgars as well. These families are linked to mine in Australia. I am a direct descendant of James Yule.Please make contact.
