Family history at the St Nicholas Kirk

Peter MacClure came on tour on 29 June 2022. His great-grandparents, Robert Allen and Mary Jane Gambles married in 1877 and lived in Ducrow for a few years until they emigrated to New Zealand. Mary Jane was a daughter of Jean Linnay from Ducrow. Robert was born in Sandwick but his mother later married Robert Eunson and moved to Thistlequoy in Holm. He greatly appreciated his visit to the Kirk and to Ducrow, and looking through the Holm Heritage archive.
