    New and looking for help identifying a photo

    My G-Grandparents were Scottish (Harvey) and Irish (McNeilly). They moved to the Canada with their children about 1910.

    I have a photo of my Grandfather, John McNeilly, wearing a kilt. I would appreciate any information anyone can offer. I think the photo was taken in Canada ca. 1920.

    Thanks, Diane

    Photo

    Sorry about the photo. I linked it to the one I have on Ancestry.com, but evidently that didn't work.

    Trying a different location:
    <a href="http://s335.photobucket.com/albums/m444/LeeMcKenith/Ancestors/?action=view&current=JohnMcNeillyGrandpa.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i335.photobucket.com/albums/m444/LeeMcKenith/Ancestors/JohnMcNeillyGrandpa.jpg" border="0" alt="John McNeilly"></a>

    Thanks for the Welcomes!!

    Diane
