The Invergordon Archive

What wonderful photos on this website. Thanks to all contributors. I am the daughter of Catherine Florence Ross (aka, "Strathy Cathy"), who was born in Achnagarron, 1919, and who died in Toronto, 1984 (her parents were Alexander Ross and Catherine Ann Graham). CF Ross lived at various times in Alness and Easter Baldoon, and attended Invergordon Academy (she used to speak about a very animated teacher--"Mr. Ross"--I believe). She was in the ATS before emigrating to Canada (Toronto), in 1944. I would love to hear from anyone who knew her or has photos of her or other ROSS (or GRAHAM; FRASER; MCKAY/MACKAY; or GIBSONS of Lamington) relatives. Thanks so much. (It is possible that the Chrissie Ross in this photo was a relative of my late mother.)

I think that the George Ross, 4th from the left on the back row was my maternal grandfather and the father of Julia Ross (my mother) 6th from the left in the middle row of picture #1188.
Her sisters Chrissie Ross is 4th from the left middle row and ivy Ross, 1st on the left front row.
My mother was born in 1934 and grew up at number 4 Outram Street, Invergordon as a child

I would be interested in knowing when Alness pupils started coming to Invergordon Academy for their secondary education ??
