Regarding my previous posting I should add names. My great grandfather was James Harper Paterson, wife Katherine, formerly of Dalnaglar Castle, Perthshire, and Moray Place, Edinburgh.

For what its worth my great grandparents lived at Harvieston in the 1920s .We have a photo somewhere if the entire family grouped in front of the house. My mother is probably about two when the photo was taken so it must date to about 1926. Hopefully I can find it when I return to Britain in october. I don't know if the house was owned or leased by them at that time and when they moved in or out. They lost most of their money in 1913 so Harvieston was where they retreated to. Poverty is a relative term!
