This is a photo I had never seen before that cousin Anne (Reid) Gilliland sent me on March 2008. I am guessing some names here and if I'm wrong, please email me.
Back row: James Reid (Anne's father) Sam Reid & Matt Reid (My father)
Middle row: Jim McKeown? ~ unsure ~ Ronie (Rosanna) ~ unsure ~ Bobby Reid
Front row: unsure ~ Lizzie (Reid) McKeown ~ Granny and Granda Reid holding Margaret? James and Jean's daughter.
Boy and girl at front: Jim Reid and Mary (Reid) Todd; also James and Jean's.
So, How did I do ? Approx date of photo ~ 1937-38 ?
