Any info on Dan Williamson would be appreciated by a relative of Dan in Zealand who has emailed me Pearl Turnbull/ nee Baker of the MacGruer family as she is looking for her ancestral relatives

We found a copy of this photo in my mother's (Jessie Wood neeMacgruer) possessions when she passed away so looked it up Mary Macgruer was my grand mother and I remember some of the other names from the stories she used to tell us. Comment left on 12 March 2013 at 21:19 by Graeme Wood

Ileen Bain is my mother and my aunt, Megan Bain is behind her in this photo. Any other forestry photos would be great to see! My mum is now the grand old age of 91 and fit as a fiddle. Must have been the Auchrerawe air.

Although I was only a boy at the time I remember many of those in the photograph. Comment left on 28 November 2015 at 19:27 by Tommy Aitchison.
