    This was a letter that my father had in his files. I am not sure how he had this as it is addressed to one ‘Aidan’ It is an interesting look at the Messina Family from one directly connected to them.  The photograph below was in my Grandmother’s collection and it is her writing that names the people (As shown, Concetta was my Grandmothers Aunt.).  It introduces you to some of the characters that are talked about in the letter. Uncle John and Uncle Frank would be  per letter “she had two brothers, Giovanni and Francesco”  and ‘Harman Junior’ would have been the father of Harman Grisewood who wrote the letter below.

    THE NEW BIOGRAPHICAL DICTIONARY OF  SCOTTISH WOMEN

    This dictionary is dedicated to the memory of our co-editor and friend Sue Innes (1948–2005), who gave to it all the enthusiasm, dedication and flair she brought to everything in her life, and who was still working on it, and inspiring others, to the very end. As an epigraph for the Dictionary, Sue chose these lines by Mary Brooksbank: Politicians and rulers Are richly rewarded, But in one woman’s life Is our history recorded.
