Title: Photo Offer Polmont Brightons Muiravonside etc
Post by: valr on Saturday 21 February 09 22:16 GMT (UK)

Hi
I live in Brightons beside Polmont. I would be happy to take photos of any houses etc in Polmont, Brightons, Laurieston, Muiravonside, Redding, Reddingmuirhead - all of which are virtually on my doorstep. Please don't ask me if you live in Stirling or Edinburgh and just cant be bothered making the trip! However if you are down south or abroad I would be happy to take and send pics of your ancestors homes/farms... as I know I would be delighted if someone did that for me. (Anyone in Devon/Lincolnshire???  ;D)

Hi Val what a wonderful gesture. I would love to have a photo of a place called "Polmont House". When my GGrandfather came to Australia he fashioned his house on the one in Polmont called Polmont House. His name was John Gardiner born 1801 in Bennetston christened Polmont Stirling. His parents were James Gardiner & Jean Gardiner both born 1763. James parents were James & Margaret Watts.  I don't know who Jean's parents were.
If you can help that would be great.
wishes all

Hi Jo,
 
I totally apologise for not having posted these pictures - I took them a while ago, but seem to have forgotten about them.  There is a house named Rosehall on the main Street at Polmont, and a garage on the other side of the street.  It also seems as though the ground to the back of the original house has been split up and there seems to be several other (new) houses built on that land.

I will get these piccies to you asap.

Once again I'm very sorry for forgetting.

Gillian
