Thank you for the photo's Myyran, they are fantastic to see  :) It was eerie looking at the photo of "Greenie Hoose"

Unfortunately their mother died in 1906, all which was left of their immediate family was their father James, older sister Margaret, younger sister Jessie and younger brother William who was too young to join up, thank god for that. Jessie and William moved to New Jersey, USA in the early 1920's, Margaret married and became a Paton, and poor old James Munn died an old lonely man in Lochgilphead Asylum in 1945. He never saw his daughter-in-laws or grandchildren. So sad  :'(


Thanks again for the photo's
