Hi Steve,

Have you tried looking in Scotland?

Some Magees did go over there like my lot did.

Kind regards,

Tees

Steve,

Will take a look for you tonight.

Here's a bottle of headache pills for you... ;D

Remarriage is another possibility to consider---USA or Canada is a possibility, too.

Can see why you need some aspirins.

Kind regards,

Tees

Hi Steve,

Will do and will get back to you with any information I could find.

Try and find a old penny or two and put it in a headscarf. Roll it up into a headband. It may help you with your headache. (I was told that it was what my granny did with her headaches.  ???)

Regards,

Tees

Hi Steve,

What a lovely bunch they are! :)

Was your Granda a farmer? He looked like one, cannot be certain.

As to the bandage, I am not sure...it does not look like it hold any old coppers...

Perhaps anyone could venture (sp?) to tell us whether we are thinking same thing or not....

Kind regards,

Tees

Hi Steve,

I have looked at the SP and no sign of your couple.  :(

Have tried all the possibilities on the names--still "failed" to come up with your couple.

Think you may be right about their emigration to either the US or Canada.

At least, we are able to eliminate Scotland from your "sightings."

Kind regards,

Tees
