Hi Andrew, does your father remember my Grandad, Roderick Duff? I have a few photos which I have sent through for approval, those may jog his memory more once theyre up. Either that or I could send you a few on email.
Cheers
Paul

Paul, yes my father does remember him and recalls he went by the nickname "Putty". He thought his true name was Derek though? Comment left on 02 January 2006 at 12:11 by Andrew Bathie
Putty? Thats a new one. I wonder why they called him that? Derek is short for Roderick, my Nan called him Derek. Apparently, a lot of people knew him as Derry Comment left on 02 January 2006 at 12:16 by Paul Thomas
no disrespect but I think Catriona is older. Comment left on 02 January 2006 at 17:32 by Anon
Hi Paul, have tried to contact you but all e-mail is returned to sender as not deliverable. We have family ancestry connections according to the information I have and wondering if you still view this site.
My mothers side of my family(Macdonald) came from Cromarty and Jemimaville and I have ancestry which has been traced back to 1766, my great grandparents were William Urquhart(1833-1909) and Alexandrina(Munro)1842-1920 from Jemimaville.
I would be pleased if you contacted me by e-mail to confirm our connections, and help you further with tracing your roots. You appear on my family tree as Paul Mather born 21 Dec 1976.
