NOTES & QUERIES:
Re Malcolm POWELL - "He was 20 years younger than Valette - they eloped to Gretna Green & mum insisted they got "properly" married in Inverness at 14 Ardross Street - must have been 1938 or 37. Their only son Malcolm was born Sept '39 - he lives in Vancouver now - Malcolm Sn. left Valette for another woman and died in USA".
(letter from Harriet Mitchell).
