thanks for the reply.

Here is what I know.  My grandfather was Edward Owen born 1926 lived at 72 Napier Crescent.  His parents were Robert Owen and Helen Martin both born in 1887.  Edward had 3 sisters:Betty, Margaret and Nellie.  Betty married a Steven Campbell and had two daughters Mary and Mae.  There last known address is 38 Flash Five, Valeview Terrace, Bellsmyre.  Margaret married a Danny Coggins and had 3 children: Brian, Margaret(who moved to Italy) and Mary.   I think that Nellie died at a young age.  Edward also had 4 brothers:Robert(who had a taxi service), David(who moved to Toronto), Alec and Billy.  I am not sure who all is still alive and I know this may not be a lot to go on. 

Edward moved to the US around 1946.  His father Robert died in 1941 and his mother Helen died in 1965.  My main goal is to find out if I have any relatives still in Scotland and to contact them.
Thank you for your help, Angela :)

Hi Angela I found this site by pure chance and saw your old post regarding your Dumbarton family I and just wanted to let you know that a new facebook page has been set up called The Great Brucehill Story that could be useful to you.  I was brought up in Castlehill and know the Owen family who I think came originally from Brucehill.

Kind Regards
