Just to add a few of the old photos I have inherited .
This looks to be a family group taken around the turn of the 20th century , the young boy standing front left I'm fairly sure is my maternal grandfather

This next shot , I'm sure is also him as a young man , seated left , probably early in his career as an engineer , again early 20th century

Finally , an early Falkirk Fire appliance , print quality alas was very poor , and Falkirk power station , at a time before the national grid , when each town had its own power station .

To me , these are a treasure trove of family history and completely irreplaceable ; how people could throw such items out is beyond me ; even if someone were to die with no living relatives , many museums would bite your hand off for such images .
