Hello Anne,
Aww that's too bad but perfectly understandable! I'm looking forward to catching up with Cathie and Margaret and will mention our chat to them on Sunday.
 Interesting that your Grandad Finlay was in WW1 in the Black watch. My Grandad Patrick ( Finlays brother) was too, and he died in 1962. I also have some contact with Hugh's grandsons and have invited them on Sunday but not heard back yet.
My sister Norma has come over from Germany for this occasion and she tells me that she lives near Stuttgard and visits it often, she'd love to meet up and have a chat with your brother. Let me know if he'd be interested and I can PM her details to you to pass to him.
 Kind regards
Kathryn

Hi Anne,
I was so excited to get your response thank you!.
I've just made up a family tree and can now place you and your brothers on to it too ;). I have three sisters, Eileen, Joan and I live in Dundee and my sister Norma lives in Germany ( Black forest) - not sure where your brother John lives? I have two daughters Julia and Anna, I didn't know they were they were both family names!! I'm having a little meet up this Sunday to celebrate the launch of the book of the war letters of my uncle James ( Patricks son) and have tracked down a couple of 'Cairnies' who are coming along.i.e. Cathie and Margaret who were Hugh's daughters. They would both be your mums and my dads cousins. If you are still in the UK and can manage up to Dundee then please come into the Queens hotel on Sunday at 2pm! Thanks again for getting in touch Anne, I really appreciate it
Kind regards
Kathryn

Hello Anne,
I've just found you and I think we must be related ;D
 My grandfather was Patrick Cairnie and had 6 brothers: Stephen, Finlay, John, Hugh, Charles and James( ?) and a sister Ann that died young.  I think you must be a daughter of either Nan or Cathie ?. My granddad Patrick married Mary Ann, they had three sons Francis, James ( killed in action in WW2) and my dad John. We recently found the war letters from James and have published them in a book. Would love to share this with you!
Kathryn
