Until March of 2008, I had never seen an image of any of my extended family. The following two pictures are:- 1/.My great grandmother who I had heard of only because part of my name was created from her maiden name and 2/. My great uncle John Stuart with his wife Maude Whitby and two of their eight children.
My Great Grandmother Joanna MacLeod (1838-1894) of Sutherland.
My Great Uncle John Stuart (1870-1937) his wife Maude his daugher Sheila MacLeod-Stuart (1907-2000) and Mary Stuart (1905-1922) who died at age 17 from Scarlet Fever. All were born in Glasgow. It is Sheila's son Bruce, who I discovered in March of this year via Ancestry.com
John Stuart bears a remarkable resemblance to my father of whom I sadly have no pictures.
Regards,
Charles.
