I do have a Nora Barbara Clabbie her parents were Douglas H Clabbie and Mary Hogg both deceased. She was married 1955.

It seems that Nora Grose had returned to Scotland in 1955 for the wedding of her niece and namesake.

156 Dundee Street (Fountainbridge)

Here is a map view from the 1:1250 OS map ~1948, with an underlay of a modern map: move the slider at the bottom left to reveal the modern map. The buildings are numbered, so you can see where no. 156 was.

Much of the N side of Dundee Street has been redeveloped, with this stretch being occupied by a modern office building called OneSixty.

Hi,
Thanks for all the information, very interesting what you all have found. I can't seem to view the Memorian regarding Douglas Henry  Clabby and James Clabby. Would it be possible to have it sent again.
