Ian's comments:

ABOVE: I have attached a class photgraph from Ralph Cotten's class of 1968 or 69 Hartfield School and I hope somebody out there will recognise themselves or some one they went to school with. Unfortunately time has worn the memory of names but here is a partial list and my apologies to those I can't recall:-

Back row L to R--   Paul Joses, Iain Peters, Derek Miller, Andy Gibson, ? , Harry Weathereall, Billy Johnstone, George Ray, Tom Connolly, David Mitchell,  ?  ,  ?  , Graham Todd

Middle Row L to R--  Robert Mitchell, Harry Gill, George Jenkinson, Graham Barnes, Walter Allison,  John Smith, Robert McGaughey,  ?  ,Alistair Ritchie,  Stuart Burrows, 

Front Row L to R -- Campbell Brooks,  John McNeill,  ted Pattinson, James Hennebry,  Ian Geddes, Mr Cotten , Andy Cullen, Ian Dewart,. Alec Woods,  ? 

Interesting sideline....Walter Allison  and George Ray became my second cousins (?) when I married their cousin, Jean Wagner from the USA after meeting her while she was on a trip with her Grandmother, Rose Wagner (nee Neeson) who left Dumbarton for America in 1921. George Jenkinson also left for The States shortly after I did marrying Jeans best friend in 1976. After I married Jean in Detroit in 1974   we both moved back to Dumbarton in 1976 staying for 18 months before retuning to Detroit.

I would be interested in feedback regarding Hartfield school and people with other memories of it or photos. If you care to drop me a line I'm at yanto10@comcast.net
