Erskine Estate

Born in Glasgow, but soon moved to Erskine estate whilst still very young, 5 or 6. I remember walking to school through the woods and country lanes to Bishopton. It was mostly country fields. Living with another family who had two daughters. Running through the corn fields and most of the kids then meeting by the massive tree at the top of main hill road...playing army games and my HQ was the old pig sty, haha. Yes forgot Morton Hall Pictures and walking home in the dark,the cartoons of crazy Mr Magoo, the charactor who was always losing his glasses and was blind without them...He was so funny, shame they never show them these days so the next generation of children could have a good laugh.

II Would Like to Know if Any One Knew A Sean Flynn Who Lived in Talant Road

I would like to know if any one remembers a Sean Flynn who used to live in Talant Road as I used to go around with him and his mates with my mates. I was very upset when he passed away, it must now be about 23 years ago. I still think of him to this day, he was a very good friend of mine and I he will always be in my thoughts. I still cannot beleive that he is not with us today. I went to his funeral and it was so sad, so I hope that if anyone sees this they will remember him, as he was a nice guy.

I Used to Live There And go to School

I used to live in Fettercairn and went to Drumrye Primary School, and then moved to Linkwood Drive with my aunt and uncle, and then went to live with my mum in Jedworth Avenue. I then moved to Cheltenham in 1985 with my mum and step dad.

Where I Used to Live

I used to live in Fettercaine Avenue and then moved to Jedworth Avenue, I there until 1985 and then moved to Cheltenham with my parents. I would like to know if anyone who lived in Jedwroth Avenue remembers me, I lived at number 9, and I also lived at 7 and 8 Fettercaine Avenue in Drumchapel.

Where I Used to Live

Lanarkshire memories

Looking Back

I moved here from Glasgow in 1968. We lived in Donaldson Drive. I had 2 brothers, Brian and Archie. My name is Linda Duke. I also lived with my granny in Fulbar Lane during school holidays. I went to Reenfrew High School in 1968. If you remember me please get in touch, I would love to hear from you.

Campsie Family History

My name is Ronnie Campsey, my family is said to have left Scotland in 1640, the name was changed in America. I was told they left in 1640 and went to Ireland and stayed there until 1793 when they came to America on the ship 'Liberty' in 1793. I am hoping someone can tell or help me find some information of my family history in Scotland, it is said they left because of religious persecutions.
