Title: Wanted Old Photos from the Highlands Of Scotland
Post by: ShirleyMunro on Saturday 08 April 06 23:02 BST (UK)

I hate to here of old photo's/ postcards going in the bin, but can't rehome all of them.  :(
However if anyone has photos from the Highlands of Scotland, needing a new home, please let me know.
Anywhere around Inverness and north I will consider. Ross-shire, Sutherland and Caithness, are my main focus, be it places, events or people. :)
Thanks Shirley

Hi Shirley

Good to hear of photos etc going to a good home!

If you get more than you can handle, maybe these folk can help you out?

I have no vested interest, but it is a wonderful site!  :)

Thanks for reminding me.....
I forgot to say I intended to put anything of local interest on the Tain Museum website, with the aim to rehome any personal family photos. My own interest is with places and events.
I would also love to here from anyone who wants to pass on an old story about the area. Fact or Fiction.
I have had many a tale passed down to me mainly about the little people and the likes. All from the ross-shire area. I am not writing a book and am not looking to profit from the tales, I just want to document what I can before the stories are lost forever. :)
