Would be interested in sources and how to access, for Selkirk schools and pupil rolls from say 1840 to 1900. Interested in surname Ingles - sometimes mis-spelt Inglis. |

If the school is closed and if the records still exist, the school log books and admission records will be held at the Scottish Borders Archive in Hawick.
They have a new online catalogue which can be viewed at http://www.calmview.eu/HUBCAT/CalmView/default.aspx but it may not include all of the records as they are still transcribing the indexes and loading them to the catalogue.
You can contact the Hub via email: archives@scotborders.gov.uk
Which school are you interested in ? I'll probably be at the Hub again
either this week or next week and could have a look for you

Thank you for the Hub catalogue link which gave me such a thrill when I discovered no less that 7 records directly relating to my Selkirk Sandilands! Looks like there could be more too!
Although I have visited the Hub in person I had never been able to source my family in any records there apart from entries in the OPR marriages and burials. It's like winning the genealogical lottery :) |

A bit late getting back - my wife has broken her leg and I am now chief cook and bottle washer!
The only information I have of my Ingles/Inglis ancestors in Selkirk is from the census and bmd records. I do plan a visit, probably in the Autumn, so was interested to see if there was information on schools during this time and where the records are kept. I will take a look in the first place at the links you suggest, then contact the archive at Hawick. Thanks for your reply. |
