Mrs James Laurie

Active1884.  It was common at the time for the wives of prominent men to be asked to perform ceremonial tasks such as laying stones etc. Given the religious name of the hospital it seems likely that her husband was a man of the cloth. However, with quite a common name we can find nothing about this lady nor her husband.
