Ian MacDonald Wood From Wick

[kerothwell]

Hi All,
         Trying to find Ian,we were Aprrentices at the same time with Babcock & Wilcox at Renfrew. 1950 - 1953.We stayed at the B & W Hostel Brediland House on the Foxbar Road. 28 Guys from all over the World. I am still in touch with some of the guys from our era and hopefully RootsChat.com might be able to help me get in touch with Ian. I have seen some great photos that I have never seen before and am pretty sure it would be the same for Ian. Sad to  say Brediland house was beautiful but was knocked down by a developer before protection could be obtained. It was a well known Paisley Mansion. Our Scots Mum and Dad Mr & Mrs Fergus MacDuff Gourdie,were strict but great fun and we had lots of Birthdays, Parties, Engagements etc. The place was in absolute Pristine condition and the guys, I am in touch with still reckon it was part of the best times in our lives. Quite a few married Paisley Girls. Ian was a good footballer and me being a Liverpool Nut we had some great tussles on one of the estate fields. I acn now tell him I hope about this guy I met or he planned to meet me.His Name was Bill **** and he was just Starting his coaching career with Grimsby Town. Then he BUILT Liverpool. Heres hoping Best Regards Ken Berry and Thank You
