    A very unseasonable picture:  a party from Reef, out at Strome for peats in fine weather.  Angus Mackay (an Gagan), James Morrison (Seumas Mhurchaidh Seumais), Christina Mackay, Peggy Macritchie (Peggy an Irish) and Murdo Macdonald (Morgan).

      Thanks! The addition of nicknames makes such a difference to identifying the people in this picture. Can we have that for all historical data?
      eg. John Macdonald Eneclate doesnt tell us much, but Iain Puff immediately places the man right in context.
