miners rows Dalry, Ayrshire, 'The Raws'
« on: Thursday 13 September 18 11:44 BST (UK) »
Hi, my grandfather and great grandparents lived in miners' rows in Dalry.  I have started an oral history project, talking to people who remember 'The Raws'. If any members have information, especially photographs, which they think might be relevant I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Marie

There is a FB group Dalry memories  if you haven't already tried it.  You may find people on there.  Afraid I don't remember them personally.

Thanks to everyone who replied to my request for info on miners' rows in Dalry.  Some suggested sources I had found already but some were new so members have been very helpful.  Any further suggestions gratefully received.
