I've got few blanks in my family tree which I would like fill in if at all possible. One of these is for information regarding Catherine and Robert Andrews who were "Boarded out" (fostered) to a Miss Gillies in 1927, Catherine in June (aged 5) and Robert in October (aged 3).

If anyone has info on Miss Gillies or the children it would be much appreciated. Many thanks.

Kind regards

Andrew McKenzie

This could refer to a lady who still lived in the Moss when we moved here in 1976,  although she was then known as Nell Grey.. I believe there was a book written about her.  The house is now derelict.
