Hi there, John Myron was my father,he passed away in 1967 in New Zealand after we emigrated in 1958,I knew he had a brother (my uncle ) but I never met him,I can vaguely remember my Grandmother ,Ellen /Helen Bain living with us for a very short time , early fifties, as she was on her way south ,I think to live with either a daughter or her Sister, a few years ago I asked my Mother ,who has since passed on , who my dads parents were she said , Morris Myron and Ellen Bain. I can imagine at that time 1910/1913 in a small village such as Dufftown,children born out of wedlock were frowned upon! anyway it was only very recently through my daughters efforts that I found out my Dad and his brother were born out of wedlock , if you want to get in touch you can get me at (*)

Regards Alan
