DONALDSON COTTAGE

Hello all,

On the death certificate of David Alexander Donaldson ( a relative ) it states that he died at this cottage in 1916.

I am trying to work out the relationship of David to the owner of the house who was John ? Donaldson-a retired ship's captian. The house on Victoria road was on a high point, no doubt ,so that the owner could see the ships coming and going.

hile I am waiting for the will of John Donaldson to arrive at the LDS( which I hope will solve the mystery) I was wondering if there is a photo of the cottage,-maybe a post card ,around and would anyone be willing to sell me a copy please

Any other history on the cottage would be
would be appreciated also.

know there is mention of it on Manx Notebook-- and a painting of the cottage is in The Art Gallery on IOM.

Any help appreciated

Thankyou

Erla
