Hi Ian, Thank you very much for your help. I think I gave you the information listed below. Could you please add my name to your subscribers list as researching this family? June has sent me some wonderful photos which were just what I was after. Just looking at them I can picture the family living there! It must have been so cold in the wintertime. I have been reading on travel sites that it is very windy at Kintra. Is that correct? How cold does it get in the wintertime and how warm in the summer? I would love to visit but I don't think that is going to be possible. Maybe one day! Thank you so much for all the work you do Ian with the site. I am generally quiet as far as the list goes but I do appreciate reading the postings and checking out the site. Your kindness in sharing information and helping people with their research is wonderful.
