1. The photo on the left is
of my grandmother, Jessie Lyall (Melrose) Watson with Anne Watson (b. Feb.
1908), her 3rd of 4 children (my mother Barbara Lyall Watson was born ten
years after Anne). This photo was taken in Glasgow. Jessie was born at
Dunnet's Head, Caithness, Scotland in approximately 1880 (I will check the
actual date).
2. The photo on the right is of her mother (my great grandmother), Barbara
(Lyall) Melrose, who was from Dunnet's Head, Caithness, Scotland and born
probably around 1855-60. Her granddaughter (my mother) was named for her:
Barbara Lyall (Watson) Sundell. |
