If you haven't been to the John Byrne exhibition at Kelvingrove yet, it's well worth a visit and the £7.50 admission fee. Lots of references to his home town.

Hi, my late father, Joe Mc Glone, taught in this school in the late 1960’s before we moved to Donegal in 1969 where my mum was from.Would anyone remember him or have any old pics as I am also a teacher and would love to see any memories from his teaching career.He taught Latin and Greek.
Many thanks Siobhán Savage

Anyone from the Renfrew area know of any Mayberry's, born in 1961 or 1962? Someone trying to track someone down. Their mum was called Margaret? They probably didn't go to this school.

Does anyone know of any Colhoun's in Paisley or beyond that might be related to a John Colhoun, an ex pupil from the 1930's? He was born in 1918 in Paisley, graduated from Glasgow Uni in 1939, joined the RAF, but died in an air crash in Wexford, Ireland in 1943. The organisers are looking for a photograph of John for a 75th year memorial service that they are holding this year in Wexford.
