I am trying to get information about my greatgrand parents :John McBride, (who died when my Gran was young before she was 14yrs old)and possibly Cathrine McBride,who died around 1965-68 who lived in Dunoon, I visited the grave yard and found their grave, but would like to know more about them and any family. My Gran was called Cathrine McBride, she was born in 1903 and she had a brother called John who was born in 1901 and died in 1980, he was married to Mary Caldwell, who died in 1985, I think they had a daughter called Cathrine.
I think my Gran also had a brother called Charles or Charlie who I believe drowned, she also had sisters maybe Susan and Helen, I believe my Greatgrand parents had a laundry in Dunoon. My Gran went into service when she was about 13-14 yrs old and never went back to Dunoon (probably in the 1910-1920s). My Gran wanted me to take her to Dunoon to "find her family", but she was never well enough to go, so I went my self and although I think I found the graves without my Gran I couldnot find out any more, my Gran died but I am still very intrested in finding her family for her. Can any one help? I am planning a trip to Dunoon but don't know who or what to do once I get there any ideas on where to start?.
