McGlashan (Neil) in Perthshire or Devizes in Wiltshire
« on: Monday 07 April 08 09:28 BST (UK) »

I am desperately trying to trace a Neil McGlashan - the family lived in Devizes or Perth (Scotland).  Neil is/was the son of Rear Admiral Sir Alexander D. McGlashan.

Do you have any more information to offer to help with your query - dates, etc?
There's an Alexander D McGlashan born in Hartlepool in 1901.

Hello David - Yes - I did find Neil's father who became Sir Alexander Davidson McGlashan - born in 1901 - there were 2 children, Neil and his sister - his sister married (and I don't know her new name) but she lived in Bishops Stortford.  I knew the family when they lived in Devizes - the address was either The Old Mill, or The Mill House, Devizes.  Neil was a teacher at Carn Brea Prep School in Bickley in Kent - the school was demolished around 1973 for a housing development...   His father became President of the London/Perthshire Association which was disbanded many years ago.   I doubt whether he is still alive at 108yrs.

I believe the Old Mill/Mill House in Devizes is now a hotel or restaurant.

Neil went out to Kenya to Teach for a period round about 1960.    I also think he may be married - I found when I googled "Conquerer 130" his name and marriage to Helen Iona Stanton.    I would so dearly love to make contact.

I am quite new at this searching and have spent hours on my pc to no avail.

Thank you for your email.
