Photos of Old Montrose
« on: Sunday 23 May 04 06:05 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for a publication on Old Montrose which apparently has my Gt Gt grandmother Amelia Kinnear Murison pictured outside her shop in Murray St in the 1800's with other members of the family.

Shirley,

Are you still llooking for a copy of this photo, I have the book and can scan and copy if you still need it. Presume it is the photo of James Sharp, tobacconist and hairdressers?

Thanks to everyone I do have a ciopy of the book now kindly sent by my "new" 2nd cousin that I met through the Internet.

We are not sure if it is the Murison women though, although it certainly fits the bill!

Thanks again
