Oooooo! A free meal AND a free book?

Once I get Dave's MI Book, I'll go through this thread from the beginning and hopefully be able to trace some of the families/individuals searched for.

Anne  ;D

It's surviving not too badly Ruskie.  3 tons of rubble from that fireplace alone!  Carried down stairs by yours truly.  I'm a 4th floor flat!  Knackered my legs more than the floor.
It progresses and despite the work, the floor has survived.  Once I've finished other work in the flat, I'll give it a light sand and a varnish and it'll be as good as old.

Don't be too shocked by the red.  It's actually really warm and not as harsh as it looks in these pics.  It's a big room, with a LOT of white woodwork and the big bay.  Once I get my paintings back on the wall, I reckon it'll look good.

Dave

And thanks Anne.  I, and I'm sure everyone else on the thread appreciate it.  The free meal is at my house - bring a paint brush! :D

The red with the white trim looks really nice Dave. You have very good taste.

To get back on track, I might have some people for you to look up in Dunbarton too Anne.(lucky you  ;)) I will see if I can find any gaps in my brother in law's tree, as some of his family hail from that area.  ;)

PLEASE IGNORE THIS AS I HAVE JUST NOTICED THAT IT IS PRE 1855 . DEFINATELY NEED MY EYES TESTED !

Thanks for your kind offer . On the list for Old Kilpatrick , is it only the churchyard in Old Kilpatrick itself or does it include Clydebank , which comes under the Old Kilpatrick registration district ?

Do you have any details for the following , all children of Gilbert Hay Miller & Delina McAllister ? Possibly buried at Old Kilpatrick .

Alexander b. abt 1872
Grace b. abt 1874
Annie b abt 1878
Jeannie b abt 1885
Lizzie b abt 1886
Kate b abt 1888
Delina McAllister b 1889 , d 1983
Gilbert b abt 1892
Augustus b abt 1894 (female)
William b abt 1899

Sorry I have no dates of death for the majority of them . I do not know if they died young or lived to a ripe old age .

If you can find some details on any of them that will be a big help .

                                         Many thanks , Graham .
