New Book Of Banff With Over 200 Photographs
« on: Tuesday 12 August 08 22:01 BST (UK) »

Hi, Thought someone might be interested in this,
Banff Preservation & Heritage Society are producing a new Book Of Banff, it will include over 200 photos of things like The Banff Highland Games c1930, Banff Bridge Railway Station c1900, Salmon Netters in the Deveron, Banff fire brigade 1897, and lovely things like that. The Publishers are www.halsgrove.com. You can subscribe on line £19.99. It is due to be published October. Personally I cant wait!!!
This is just a small selection of the Family Names recorded in words or pictures in the book.
ALEXANDER,BURNETT,CAMERON,DONALDSON,EWAN,FORBES,GEDDES,HENDERSON,INNES,KENNEDY,LINDSAY,
MACDONALD,ORD,PATERSON,RENNIE,SHAND,THAIN,WILSON,YOUNG.
I have a leaflet/order form that lists 100 family names recorded in the book, I don't know anything other than the surnames, but if you want me to check to see if your family name is listed let me know, unfortunately this is not a comprehensive list its just a selection.
Anyway, hope someone finds this interesting.
Best Wishes Nic.

    Hi Nic,
       Just read your entry. When you have time could you possibly check whether the book includes  Cowie,  Farquhar or Smith in it's listed names.
                               Thanks kindly. Heather
