The photos seem to have been taken by Valentine's of Dundee. They seem to be the main source for photos for Cromarty Postcards from that time. Comment left on 20 September 2010 at 21:50 by Calum Davidson

I am interested in knowing more about the Donald Bain family at Rosefarm. I'm wondering if any of you are interested in comparing what information we have? Thomas Middleton Bain, my great grandfather, was the eldest child of Donald Bain/Christian Urquhart and I'm keen to discover clues as to why he was the only one who left the Cromarty area. I have met a few other Canadian descendants of Thomas M Bain, including Sharon Kinsman. I have Cdn. records pertaining to Thomas M Bain and descendants, if you are interested in them.
