Jethart Callant's Festival

I lived at Harrietsfield near Ancrum between 1949 and 1962.   I attended JGS from 1949 - 1953 then Hawick High for a year before starting my first job at George Hogg & Sons Ltd which I worked for eight years before emigrating to Australia in 1962.

I have a brother Donald who still lives at Harrietsfield.   I have one son but six stepchildren and 31 grandchildren, and we're losing count of the great grandchildren.   Since acquiring a computer I have been able to keep in touch with family and friends in Scotland but so far, only one person I went to school with in Jedburgh!   I think most of them must have moved!!
