[ALEXANDERmclaren]

hi there
please can anyone help with this photo as far as i know it is not part of my family tree
it seems a shame that no one has claimed it
i found it in a skip in ayrshire
but i have no idea where or who the photo is from or off
i have tried looking at large estate homes on the web but no luck
if someone knows where it is i can send a large file if requested
thanks for helping
alex

Unable to help I regret to say. but thanks for giving me an hour of interest. My paternal grandmother came from Ayrshire - my father was born in 1896, and I imagine that photograph is Edwardian?

Have you tried big houses that have been turned into schools? A great many were in those days as the owners could not afford the upkeep.

HI Pepinou, have you though about contacting The National Trust For Scotland 5 Charlotte sq  Edinburgh they maybe able to find and date the house, maybe an Ayrshire family history society would be interested in the photo or having it printed in local newspapers, somebody somewere will Know were the house is. Does the photo have a photographers name or address on it ? regards Billy

Sorry, I meant to address the above  to Alex and not Pepinou, regards Billy.
