HELP GIVEN
Just to let you all know that there is a great facility for Renfrewshire residents and groups who need legal advice! This is often free or at a reduced charge as the centre is funded from various sources including from the Scottish Government's Fairer Scotland Fund. Visit the web site or call them on 0141 561 7266 HELP NEEDED Dr. John Hall Hello, I’m researching the possible connection between the above Halls {see your article, “Dargavel”} and the Dr. John Hall (1653-1719) family of Taunton, Somerset. Your article refers to De Aula and the Hall-Maxwells, “the present proprietor being a direct descendant of Robert Hall.” Is there a family tree of the Halls of Fulbar, or other family info that might document emigration to England early-mid-17th century? Are there “direct descendants” still living of this line? Quite secondarily, is there a connection between the H’s of F. and those of Dunglass (cf. John Hall, Bart., d. 1689)? Well, any help you can give me will be appreciated. CONTACT ME Margaret (Peggy) Laird Can I ask people if they remember my mother in law, Margaret (Peggy) Laird. I am trying to find more information about her early life. I know a little about her; she was born in Bishopton in June 1922 and lived at 'Old Castle'. I believe she had a sister called Barbara. Her father was John Laird and her mother was Annie Williamson. Her sister had 2 daughters, Penelope and Cecilia or Celia but this is all we know of her. I believe she had a daughter in 1944 called Marcia, but believe that the father of Marcia died in the 2nd world war. Anyone remember her or her family, I would be most grateful. NAME THAT ROAD... Named Could you tell me the name of the perimiter road at the ROF joining rossland cres to station road. Thanks to Keith Powell for this.. Beech Road! Web Site upgrade

One line humour!!! Police Station toilet stolen....Cops have nothing to go on. Schizophrenia beats being alone. If at first you don't succeed, redefine success. You have the capacity to learn from your mistakes. You will learn a lot today. A thing not worth doing isn't worth doing well. Hard work never killed anyone, but why chance it? All true wisdom is found on T-shirts. I don't have a solution, but I do admire the problem. I think sex is better than logic, but I can't prove it. The meek shall inherit the earth.....after we're through with it. If a thing is worth doing, it would have been done already. Ham and Eggs: A day's work for a chicken; A lifetime commitment for a pig. Lord, if I can't be skinny, please let all my friends be fat. Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die Confession is good for the soul, but bad for your career.
