LOCHGILPHEAD old photos wanted
« on: Saturday 16 November 19 12:22 GMT (UK) »
Hi all. Can anyone point me in the right direction to locating photos from the 1860s/1870s of Lochgilphead.
I am looking for a photo of an earthenware or auctioneers business run by the KENNEDY family.
Thanks, Katharine.

Hi Katherine

You might find something here on an compilation of old photos of Lochgilphead on youtube

You could also check in on an Old Lochgilphead facebook page here www.facebook.com/groups/381502925231988/

Hi Monica. Thanks for the links. The utube video seems to be photos outside the era I am after. I have seen it previously and unfortunately I am not on facebook (and have no intention to be) so cannot message them.
If anyone else reading has further ideas please let me know. I was looking for a library or historical society in the area that I could email. I found the library details, but it didn't seem to have an available email contact.
Katharine.

That is a pity. I will look around further for you.

Have you tried these resources here www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Argyllshire_Archives_and_Libraries
