East Thomas Street
"I am a former
resident of East Thomas Street, a place that I
am proud to be associated with. They were
great people there. Though we did not have
much, it made us all determined to do well." |

"I was surprised to
see a photograph of my sister Sheila with Davie Martin and George Keirnan
sitting on the wall in the backyard of 13 East Thomas Street.
It was great
to see and remember those times. I will
never forget my time there." |

Three Kids on a Dyke
©
"In the photo of the three kids sitting on the
dyke in photos of Chinatown (East Thomas Street) the
kids are as named Davie Martin, Sheila McLuskey and George
Keirnan.
I want to let you know that the unidentified
kid in the picture was my brother David McLuskey.
I am also Sheila McLuskey's brother,
Tom." |
