Fife / Re: Hillend Tavern
« on: Sunday 23 October 05 06:42 BST (UK)  »
My Grandparents were Tony and Maggie Geddes who owned The Tavern, Hillend, from 1946-1967. I lived there with them on and off during the 50's and 60's. My mother, Margaret, was the daughter who emigrated to Canada. I have a lot of family research about the Geddes family. What is your connection? What would you like to know?

Cheers,
Lorraine, BC, Canada

I live about 1 mile from the Hillend Tavern, Hillend, Inverkeithing.

Regards
Sleepy, Inverkeithing



Research has taken me to Donibristle - would you know anything about "The Tavern, Hill End" and/or family of the name GEDDES
I believe a daughter went to Canada - Vancouver Island.

Any help appreciated
With thanks
