Hello List, I hope to find a Sir J. G. Nairn who was a nephew? of Sir Halliday Macartney on Halliday's death certificate also as next of kin when Donald Halliday Macartney enlisted in the Canadian Army in WW1 Sir Halliday Macartney was born in Kelton KKD in 1833. and became a Dr. . J. G. Nairn lived in London in 1906 and I believe he was the Governer of the Bank of England at one time according to an aunt of mine. Sir Halliday had died before Donald enlisted , I do know there was an Isabel Macartney a sister of Halliday's who married a Nairn but I do not know which one. List members have been so helpful, it would be great to find family . Thank you for any help . Margaret in NZ.

Margaret He was Chief cashier in the early decades of the 20th century. That's an interesting position, since it means his signature appears on Bank of England banknotes of the time.

Narciza's death notice from 1949 reveals further family names: dearly loved mother of Sybil Clay, grandmother of Sarah and John Dobson. I suppose the most likely explanation is that Sybil married a Dobson and then a Clay? Sir J G NAIRNE (sometimes referred to as Sir Gordon Nairne) and his wife lived in Tring by the way. Their house was called 'Furlongs', which might reflect his keen interest in horse riding. Her residence when she died was 'The Bungalow'.
