Flora Hannagan and Michael

Taken in the kitchen at Stanley St. A rare photo of Nan (Grandma Hannagan, as I think she was known to some of you) smiling!

Note the clothes hanging on the rack above the coal range - my memory of Nan is of her sitting almost permanently by this range, cooking or drying or working at something. I'm sure she moved sometimes, but this was her 'home.'













Yours truly getting in the photo as always. (Rather like his younger son in later years.)

Question from Margaret

This came via Margaret Irvine, today.

"Does anyone know, or recall being told, where Nan (Flora Hannagan) grew up and where she lived in Dunedin before she married Pop?
Mum knows she was born in Hindon but can't for the life of her fill in any gaps after that. if anyone can help we'd really appreciate it."

If anyone can help, please contact me on mcrowl@gmail.com
