Talk:Alexander Lorrimer

birthplace
Both Alexander Lorrimer and his brother David were born in Leicester, not Aylestone. That is according to both the census and birth registrations. At the time of the births of the brothers the family lived on London Road in Leicester. Their father John Lorrimer, a Scotsman was a hosiery manufacturer in the town. He bought land in Aylestone when the Duke of Rutland sold his estate there in 1869 and had a house built on the land in the 1870s, which the family subsequently moved into. (Own research).
