Alexander Maitland's parents were Alex Maitland & Marjory/May McDougall, a sister of my grandmother Janet McDougall from Grotaig, Drumnadrochit. He was born at Guisachan in 1897. He is commemorated on the memorial at Tyne Cot Cemetery which we visited in 1973 and also on his parents gravestone at Kilmorack. |
