Ayrshire / ANNA HAY beauty Queen/ballroom competition Cumnock town hall circa 1939-41
« on: Saturday 31 January 15 15:31 GMT (UK)  »
 Please can anyone trace a coverage of this event ? Names in the article would include Anna Hay  from Auchinleck. Heats were held in Cumnock Town hall with the  next stage in the Grand Hall Kilmarnock. Dates must be between 1939( call up for WW11) and 1941 but I could be wrong. The cinema in Auchinleck ran an advertisement  with Anna's photograph afterwards. I have searched  the  Cumnock Chronicle 1934-39  but no joy. Any help gratefully received.

 I grew up in the village of Crookedholm just outside Kilmarnock and there was a wee row of rural houses near there called Grougar.You can find it by driving straight up the main housing scheme road .past the old school.turn right and keep going for maybe 3 miles? Grougar is on this back road .Next town would be Galston I guess. Crookedholm folk will tell you more!

Many thanks.I am familiar with this site and use it often,but local information is more difficult ie. information about Roberts  business
 Records of burials in Riccarton .
 What churches were there at the time?
 The minister who married Robert and Elizabeth was a Mr Mooney-where can I trace information about him?
 Any tips?

Ayrshire / Templeton from Riccarton, Kilmarnock
« on: Friday 15 June 12 22:43 BST (UK)  »
 Looking for any information about Robert Templeton Printer of Riccarton who married Elizabeth Kennedy in Riccarton on December 8th 1832.
In  1841 he lived with his family in Templeton Street Riccarton.
They had 5 children
Janet b 1834
Elizabeth b 1838
Jemima b 1840
Mary b.1843
Robert b.1845
The family later moved to Glasgow Barony and Robert junior became a calico printer.Robert senior has died between 1851 and 1861
Elizabeth disappears from the trail between the census of 1871 and 1881.

Where can I find records from this period for Riccarton?
