Hi Jane. Have you a time frame or a rough area? It might give us a start.

Cheers

I think going by their outfits it might be the 1950s and it could be Greenock or Glasgow. I googled it but couldn't find anything it looks like clothes in the window

Many Thanks Jane

Hi Elaine,

Many thanks for the reply,

I have been doing family research and went to donegal to see where exactly my family came from, anyway on visiting the townland I met a lady who said her husbands aunt had been related to my family and she gave me some pics which she had been given in a will she didn't know who some of the people where and she thought that they were from my family but I didn't regognise them I think they were cousins of my grandfathers, at the moment I am trying to tie in with annother Molloy and Gallagher family from Greenock and you have solved the  mystery for me, so it looks like they are from Greenock now I have to find out if they were Gallaghers or Molloys. It doesn't say anything on the back of the picture.

Kind regards Jane

Hi Elaine,

I was just looking at your surname list and I said to myself they are Donegal names, so I decided to have alook at your oldest posts and I was right lol anyway I see you were looking for imformation on Dunleavys and Gallachers,
I am intouch with annother lady who is looking for imformation on I think might be the same families as they settled in Greenock too, her old aunt remembers visiting a family in Glenties when she was a young girl to recuperate from Scarlett fever oh it was a farm she stayed on.

Need to have alook at your other posts.

Kind regards Jane

Do you like being confused 
I dont know what it is about the two people in that picture
but I get the feeling I have seen them somewhere before
I am going to print the picture off and ask my aunts if they recognise
them
I have heard something about a farm in Glenties from my aunts
but was unable to find any info on it
apparently there was a falling out of some of Grandfather's family over it 
but as it is all hearsay I didn't take much notice of it
I am glad I had that picture and was able to help
if you need any info for the other Lady please let me know
I will see what I have
Elaine
