    1. Dunbar Castle????
    2. Jenny Bostock
    3. Hello to all on the list. I have just joined and i am not too sure on the whole geographical aspect of Scotland... but i am assuming that DUNBAR CASTLE is in DUNBARTONSHIRE. If i am wrong, tell me please! I need to know if there are any archieves on Dunbar Castle and the town that surrounds it. All websites found on search engines come up with tourism sites! My Great Uncle was William Reginald Ellis (little Willy) he was born within the castle grounds on 6th July 1922, and was the first boy to be born within the castle grounds for 100 years, and the town held a celebration... however he died 15th November 1922 of pneumonia and the shops closed on the day of the funeral. Details have been found in the local registry office and the grave plot is 976. On top of a hill looking out over the sea facing North. Can anyone help me in obtaining newpaper archieves of the birth/death and the events in the town? (Belhaven?) Does anyone remember this? Has anyone that has visited the graveyard, spotted a tiny grave containing Little Willy? Are there any sites on the net which may have recorded the towns history? Have your heard of this story before??? Any info will be gratefully recieved. thankyou Jenny Bostock (Nth Buckinghamshire) ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
