This section of the website is a breakaway from dogs and, indeed, animals (although they may feature here and there) and instead brings together memories, photographs, stories and places that play some part in my greater family story.

Places

These pages explore some of the places that play a part in our family’s story and contain documents, photographs, stories and anecdotes of times spent there.

Barrachan – the home of the Weirs

Craigholm – the Gray family house at the Waterworks in Milngavie.

The Woodhouse – the home of the Macfarlanes and now a ruin in the grounds of Mugdock Country Park.

Families

Some information about individual family groups, their relationships, movements and origins.

The Gray Family at Craigholm – Andrew Gray, Jean Weir and their children.

Documents and Records

Background documents that evidence some of the information on this site including deeds, census records, newspaper reports etc.
