Another old postcard. Not sure where this is taken but I'm sure somebody will recognise the spot instantly.

Alexander Gordon Graham married his cousin Nancy Graham in 1833. They lived in Bellevue in Church Street. She was born about 1805 in Spanish Town, Jamaica and died in Cromarty in 1883. Her daughters lived on in the house and are said to have sold off many of the articles of value, including the portrait by Raeburn. Comment left on 11 March 2014 at 21:31 by David Alston
