Winning the Ayrshire Cup 1888

by Shona Picken
  • Kilbirnie Ladeside football team 1888

I have come across an old photo of Kilbirnie Football club with the Ayrshire cup - taken in 1888. It is printed on stiff card with 'Anderson & Son, Dalry' on the side. Would the firm have sponsored the printing of the photo? My maiden name is Anderson and many of my relatives came from Kilwinning.

It is many years since I lived in Ayrshire, so any information on team members or connections with the Anderson family or business would be much appreciated.

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
