My grandfather Charles Harley came to Canada from Tayport somewhere around 1900 +(-). I see there is an Anne Harley in this picture. Do you have names and address of Harleys in Tayport that I might try to find out more about my ancestors?

There were a number of Harleys in Tayport, my step father, Peter had a brother and sister, both emigrated , his older brother went to Australia with his wife and children and as far as I know are still there.Dorothy , the youngest ,married Ian Rennie and went to NZealand where he worked in the Forestry commission.They still live there and are are on south Island. I spoke to her in 2007 when in NZ on a visit, Her parents Martha and Peter are both dead now. As is my step father (1986). He is buried in vicarsford just outside tayport.

Hi William- I just recently caught up with Dorothy and Ian- she is a cousin to my husband David Harley- his father immigrated to Australia in 1968. Am I to guess you were Dorothy’s step brother? We visited Tayport in 1982 and stayed with Peg and Sam Lawson.

Delwyn Bastian went to Hong Kong with her dad and mum. She was a close friend but we lost touch. Where is Delwyn now? My dad was the cinema manager Bobby Clark and I was Sandra. Anyone remember ?
