Peter!!  Those photo's are fabulous!  Thank you so much for posting them.
I have gone over each and every face, and I'm sorry to say that I don't recognize any.  But theoretically, some of  our (me and Helen's) Stewarts, Coyles, Cuthbertsons, Dochertys, etc..... could well be among  them.
Who is the wonderful cousin that shared these with you, and does that person still live in Duntocher?
What was your dad's name?

And finally, can Helen & I share these with the older rellies still in Duntocher in hopes of identifying some of the faces?

Davy Halliday - I know that name.  My Mum used to speak of the Halliday family.  Didn't one of them write a book on Duntocher?

Any takers on this one?  My Dad (Alec) is on the right.  Can anyone identify the other two?
