Does your interesting book mention any Gerrards in Greenock? John, James or David in particular.

Sorry, there are no Gerrards mentioned. I have some Gerrards in my family tree but they originate from Aberdeenshire. Welcome to rootschat.

Thank you so much for looking.  I am aware there are lots of Gerrards in Aberdeen area, but know mine came over from Ireland. M

I'm not doing well,am I? There are 20 Sutherlands in the book, but none in Dunfermline. Oh well it's always worth a look. Leads often turn up in odd places!

So pleased you found information on the shoe shop. The book I have is about people who were alive in 1938, so that might explain why your family are n't in it.
