Review # 1 was written on 2012-04-18 00:00:00 James Wob Opening: CHAPTER I: DOMESTIC ANNALS It is believed that in 1665, James Stevenson in Nether Carsewell, parish of Neilston, county of Renfrew, and presumably a tenant farmer, married one Jean Keir; and in 1675, without doubt, there was born to these two a son Robert, possibly a maltster in Glasgow. In 1710, Robert married, for a second time, Elizabeth Cumming, and there was born to them, in 1720, another Robert, certainly a maltster in Glasgow. In 1742, Robert the second married Margaret Fulton (Margret, she called herself), by whom he had ten children, among whom were Hugh, born February 1749, and Alan, born June 1752. referred to here: ------------ Spent a fair few hours today rambling back and forth through the pages here and whilst there are some fantastic snippets of really cool historical interest, there are also pages and pages of churchy type doings and ladies' letters to hurdle over, or scoot around.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-03-22 00:00:00 Grant White My dad would have liked the "lower and longer" sneer that partially encapsulated Harley Earl's approach to the styling of GM cars over the years (especially the 1950s). He always added "and lovelier" to the "L and L". Harley Earl gave the public something it thought it wanted to buy year after year, part of a corporate policy that wasn't called "planned obsolescence" but definitely was.
