Haggart family Brechin/cowdenbeath area.

[Scottleneveu]

Hello, I am looking for any information on my great grandfather David Wright Haggart. I believe that he was born in Cowdenbeath, Scotland around 1922 but I  think that he spend most of his childhood in brechin which is where most of the family now lives. I think his father was called David Nicol Bruce Haggart and I think he was born around 1894 in possibly Laurencekirk, Scotland? He married my gg grandmother Nellie Alison Sunter who I believe was born in Brechin but passed away quite young, but unfortunately, this is really all I know. I would love to hear from anybody who is possibly related to me as I really don't know a lot at all about my Scottish roots.
I hope to hear from you soon, Scott.
