2017-18 Syllabus

The syllabus for the 2017-18 session looks as if it is now complete. We are just waiting to firm everything up at our committee meeting in August.

Some great looking talks including; Rudolf Hess, Alexander Greek Thomson, The Grammar School during WW2, Ardrossan Castle and stories from Rankin & Borland.  We are confident we have another excellent syllabus in place.

William Armour - left Kilmarnock in 1962

We have received a request for information about the Armour family in Kilmarnock.

Gordon Armour left Kilmarnock for Australia in 1962 - his father was called William. We don't have his mother's name.

We know that William was a Mason in Kilmarnock as was David Stephenson Armour (dob 03/04/1923)

Can anyone cast any light on the Armours ? Gordon's partner is trying to trace any living relatives as they are visiting in 2018-19 and she would love to surprise him !

Contact us via  info@kilmarnockhistory.co.uk  if you can help. Thanks
