The housing in the pic might be a bit more recent than 1841, though.

St Thomas's:

Take a look at the blurb for the church, and note:
Subject Location
OSGB36: geotagged! NT 2676 7610 [10m precision]

You can search for NT26767610 at
http://www.streetmap.co.uk/
and play around with the zoom.

The ref NT 2676 7610 is the same as NT 26760 76100 [1m precision]
Also, NT are the magic Landranger style letters for the pair 3,6.
So the ref can be written in the old OS style as 326760,676100

Even if you don't remember the magic letters or what they stand for, one can look up Leith at Geograph, and see all the km sqs are in the NTs.
One can also look up Cables Wynd at streetmap, and see what URL it takes you too.
Embedded in the URL is the OS coordinates for the arrowhead, viz:
x=326765&y=676284.

Anyways, once I've gotten some idea of the old style OS coords, I can look up, say, 326750,676200 at:
http://www.old-maps.co.uk/index.html
and select a map from the col at right - select a scale of 1:2500 or larger scale (there are some 1:1056 scale for 1853 and 1876 which look good)

NB I adjusted the coords to get both the church and the Wynd on the same frame at 1:1056.
Increasing the 1st coordinate increases the easting - the 2nd coordinate is the northing.

Is there any photos of were any of them leaved or were born please thank you
