I mind them both, Danny's death shocked us all, a nice young fella he was ... very sad end to a life.

Thanks Jimmy on your memories of them both. Bella was Mithers aunt and Danny her cousin. They died before my minding, indeed I think Mither and Faither took Bella to Burn cottage to look after her in her final days.
Danny was indeed a nice young man I have "hard hid so many times", his untimely death affected Mither all her life, she aye felt they should have seen his depression but as we all know if someone is of that mind set we dont always see the signs.

I believe that Bella Thomson was my late mothers Aunt. Does anyone know if she had siblings that were twins?
