"Margaret (Dunne) Reynolds"

The family lived in Shotts until 1930 when they moved to Westthorn Cottage near Dalbeth, Glasgow where Dick worked as bandmaster and night watchman at the Reformatory. After that closed, they moved up the road to 2045 London Road.

(The Dunnes lived in Carrigeen, just north of Newinn on the road from Cashel to Cahir.)
