BRAND JANET       57
BRAND JANET       23

Hopefully, I'll be able to return the help along the line.

To dishevelled1,

Hi Jean,

Thanks for your input. I noticed on another subject you have advised you are going to Port Glasgow & Watt Memorial Library in a couple of weeks... if you have time I was wondering if you could possibly have a look in the papers for a story about some young boys who stowed away on the "Arran" in 1868. See http://www.genweb.ca/nfdata/093/tidbits/93_2stowaways1.htm for more info.

kind regards
Libby

that story appeared in the Greenock Telegraph a few years ago, someone was also looking for information on that story
