Hello Stephen,

I am sure you will get a lot of help here. There is a thread on Blantyre that has been going for several weeks now.
I haven't looked at it much as I know very little of Blantyre except that David Livingston was born there.

Welcome
wini

Hi Stephen,

Nothing to do with Blantyre, although I do have ancestors from there, but my Grannie and Granda lived next door to Ian Rankin's family in Bowhill, Cardenden. Let's see who else lived near a famous Scot !
Welcome to TS.

Best Wishes
Cath
