He died 1924 at the young age of 38. Are there perhaps records held somewhere of persons employed by the railways at this time? I am looking forward to visiting the museum in a week's time.Woman begat Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18188811853834796287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4368258020854525544.post-48923540392605429542011-02-27T21:56:46.045+02:002011-02-27T21:56:46.045+02:00Dear Sir,

I do think that my great grandfather William James MacLarty is sitting in the front row on the floor, second from the left.<br /><br />I hope to make contact with SAR archives to hopefully find some employment records.<br /><br />Best regardsUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211711617864631065noreply@blogger.com
