Elizabeth Baird Bell   19/Aug/2002:00:54:27 Hello, I was born in Saltcoats in 1941, to Adam and Ina Bell (Campbell). We lived on Parkend Rd in Saltcoats until 1949 when they built new houses on Mayfield Rd, we moved to #12. I lived there until 1960 when I moved to the states. My aunt lived next door they're family name was Mitchell. My brothers name was William Bell, he joined the Navy and went to Australia. I went to Kylshill School and then the Public School. If anyone remembers me or anyone in my family please contact me, I'd love to hear from you. Sandra Haley   17/Aug/2002:18:55:58 Hello everyone. I live in Nova Scotia, Canada, and I am looking for information about some of my ancestors from Saltcoats. My greatgrandmother was Catherine Mary Higgins, daughter of Terrence Higgins and Catherine O'Hara. Some of her siblings were: Mary (who married Harry Malloy), Nellie, Susan, Will and Dan. Catherine Higgins was born on July 17, 1879 and was christened in St. Mary's Catholic Church. I believe several descendants of those mentioned above still live in Saltcoats and I would love to make contact with some of them. I believe some of them live Union Street and Canal Street. Hope to hear from you.   john petrie   10/Aug/2002:20:56:59 Hi all.
