Hi Christopher

Thanks for your reply.  Yes, I pop into Penicuik Whats On quite a lot, but as you say have not seen any of the pics I'm looking for.  Think I will contact Chris and see if there are anything.

Regards

Thank you again!  Wanted to check instead of going along with the story that could have been wrong!

Looking at some of the grumpy faces I don't know if I want them in my family! ;D

Thanks old rowley

That would tie in.  Just checked my database and my great grandfather was a Co.-Sergt-Major for the Royal Scots Fusiliers.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Wedding Group - date and uniform?
« on: Monday 29 October 07 21:30 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I was wondering if anyone can date the attached photos.  If it is who we think (my G Grandparents) they were married in 1917 but we are not too sure if this is who we think!

Also if anyone can let me know the uniforms that would be an extra bonus!

Many thanks
Sharon

I was christened in the Church of Scotland only have one godmother.  My sister is the same.  My godmother (who, btw, is catholic!) doesn't look out for me and we don't know where my sister's is!

I'm godmother to two, my cousin who was christened in Wales and my nephew who was "named" by the Salvation Army.  My nephew has two godmothers.  My cousin has one godmother (me) and a shared godfather with his twin sister (who has her own godmother, my sister).

I've already seen it.  :D It was shown on BB1 Scotland last night (football on tonight).  Luckily I had it in my planner or would have missed it!

I thought it was good.

The Common Room / Re: Getting info from "Family Tree"

Hi again

Just received a reply back from my letter to this mystery writer (I kept my work address to be on the safe side).  He does appear to be genuine and if I've worked it out correctly he is my granny's second cousin.  As soon as his family left Scotland it looks like all contact was lost.

Still not found out how he got my work address but maybe will find out one day!

Thanks to everyone for your advise on this.

Sharon
