who was J.O. Kemp???


I found this site, and an entry for J.O. Kemp not at 1 Heriot Row, but with a colleague at that address

http://digital.nls.uk/directories/browse/pageturner.cfm?id=85355366&mode=transcription

It's a listing of the Volunteer Directory


2nd Highland. — Captain S. R. Dunn, 88 George
Street; 2nd Lieut. J. O. Kemp. 58 North-
umberland Street;
.
.
.
.
2ud Lieut. L. L. Bilion, 1 Heriot Row;


The father James Ogilvie died in 1917, could the 2nd Lieut J.O. be son Alexander?
