I really cannot recall the name of the street, I feel that I could actually go there if I was in Dundee as we called in every day but then I would have to know the name of the place where we were staying and time plays tricks on memory. I did say to someone once you could see the La Hull (Low Hill) from the yard but then I was informed everyone everywhere could.Uncle Dave was born 15 Jun 1862 Kingoodie village Longforgan,Perth and I know it was 1953 when he died as it was my first year of High School and my father called into the College to tell me so we must have received a telegram with the news. Uncle Dave's Mother was a Jean Stewart born 6th June 1826 Kirkmichael, Banff, (Perth) Scotland not sure when she died but my grandmother said both her grandparents were alive when they left for Australia possibly 1901. Yes our family have a habit of christening or registering a child with one name and calling them by another, probably to keep the family happy.
I guess electoral rolls and telephone books are still available, although most people use cellphones even a notice in the newspaper might work it would be a shame to visit a place and pretty frustrating to think I have family there but where? I think you probably have the correct street in those days it was pretty close to the knitting mills but I guess they are all gone now.
Thank you Heather
