Karen MacLeod


Karen MacLeod is the granddaughter of Joanna Fordie who lived at Woodlands at Dalcataig post WW2. Joanna died in 1962 aged 86.

Karen's father, Alexander Milne Christie was Joanna’s son by her first marriage. William (Bill) Fordie was Joanna's son by her second marriage and who married Jennie Grant. Their son, Grant Fordie, is therefore Karen's cousin.

Here, Karen remembers the place and her grandmother.
