March 2015. Photo sent in by Terry Frew, Glasgow, Scotland
Terry sent me this old photo of the c1962 class of St.Michael's Primary School. Terry lost his own copy of the photo many years ago and he would like to thank Ann McGuiness for kindly gifting him this photograph, that belonged to her late brother James, who sadly passed away when only 24 yrs old. (James is top row No.5).
Terry lived at Invernairn Street, Parkhead and James lived in Dunbar Street, Parkhead until they both moved to Millerfield Place in Dalmarnock, at the same time. The catchment area for Dalmarnock was Sacred Heart School in Bridgeton and both Terry and James moved school and were in the same class at Sacred Heart Primary.

I am in that picture, No 6 in the fourth row (with the specs). I remember James McGuinness and Terry and most of those in the picture.
We lived at 1252 Duke street and moved to Garthamlock when I was nine. We then moved to Kirkintilloch when I was 13. My sister RENA was 15 months younger than me and also went to St Michael's. The Parish priest at that time was Fr Michael O'Connell. He was also our parish priest in Kirkintilloch.
In the school pic, next to me is Thomas (Clinton?). Row three Nos 2 and 3, possibly Julie and Ruth (no surnames). Row two No 1 is Margaret Carson I think with Sandra No 7. Front row (l-r) Gallagher, Willie Henderson (I thought) Joe Grimes and Willie Turnbull. I remember Marion McQuade and Margaret Green. I never met any of them again. Also, I'm sorry to learn about James's death. His family took me on a run to relatives in Cambuslang round about the time of the photo. His dad drove a large van for work. Thanks.

Thanks for your info Paul. I knew Willie Howarth in secondary school, Willie Henderson was the Rangers player.
Much of my info is from memory but also from the names listed by James on the back of his photo.
It is definitely John Grimes and Andrew Turnbull. Front row 3 & 4

Thanks Terry. Going by my memory, I would definitely say it was Joe Grimes. We probably called Willie Howarth "Henderson" as a nickname as the Rangers player Willie Henderson was around at that time. Also, Sandra is No. 8 in the second row, not 7. What ever happens to them all?
