Hi all,

If you use Firefox as a web browser, you can integrate "personas" which give you a little more personality.

There are a bunch of tartan, Scottish, etc., personas, although there doesn't yet appear to be a Livingston tartan one, or one that incorporates our clan badge. Anyone want to create one and has the know-how, let me know!

Anyway, I happened to notice there was one for Ballachulish:

There are LOTS more!

FYI.

Thanks Kyle!

Hi Ginger,

If you go to Clan Society Gallery on the Clan Society web page you can see in the old Ballachulish Quarry photo a group of white washed cottages which I suspect were residents of the some of the quarry workers. I suspect that your ancestors cottage at West Laroch, Ballachulish was likely identical to one of these you see in photo. I would be pretty certain of it. This is what the workers cottages likely looked like in the mid 1800's. It is great that we have that photo.

regards,

Donald

The very interesting thing about those photographs is that the cottages and camp of the Colorado quarries look almost interchangeable with the Ballachulish counterparts.
