This site is a work in progress, is free and for educational and interest purposes. I have been researching James McLevy since 2004 and collect here some of that work. Many people have given up their time to help me with my research and their organisations are acknowledged below. When I retire I will finish the research.
Thanks to

The National Library for Scotland transformed from the “library of last resort” in my youth to the modern accessible organisation it is today.
