Title: School in Thurso- Miller Institution/Academy
Post by: CPSdave on Monday 16 July 07 21:11 BST (UK)

My dad was a student in Thurso during the time 1909-1920.  I have a class photo taken outside a building identified by others as the Miller Institute/ now Miller Academy.  Is there any information site about this institution?  Are there any methods either by email or post to contact someone from the school?  Not being familiar with Scottish schooling, I am most interested in contact with someone who can fill in my knowledge gap.

Hi,

This looks like what you are looking for. Its the school site and you may be able to contact them to ask where you could get details of your father.
