My nana's family of 16 children lived in Saltburn, but they were all born in Invergordon. I am really looking forward to finding people who remember my family or maybe even relatives.

I’m Mary Hogg (nee Matthews) my grandmother was Crissie Matthews (nee Mitchell) one of Annie and George Mitchell’s 16 children. I was delighted when my daughter helped me to find these photos and information. I live in Edinburgh and would love to hear from any relatives.

What a wonderful thing the internet is. I am Richard Matthews, grandson of Crissie. I found a copy of an article from the Ross-shire Journal from June 12th 1942 reporting on the Golden Wedding of Annie George Mitchell. All 16 siblings were named so I decided to have a look.
