Visiting Lumberjacks in Wartime North of Scotland - Alasdair Cameron (ARCH). Retired Crofting Commissioner, Alasdair was always trying to find out why Canadians had sawmills in Scotland, but finding out about them was not easy until the internet arrived.
Increasing interest from the descendants of these Lumberjacks has released further information from the Canadian archives and Alasdair will be sharing the results of his research in this, the last in our 2022-23 season of talks. Or join us on Zoom:
