The Beginning

My name is Cathy Summersell. I was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1962. I am an AITKEN clan and now live in England.
I am from a family of 9 siblings and we are all scattered around the UK.
I am constantly on the search for additions to my family tree.
I look forward to making that connection and also sharing photographs is great as you can put a face to a name. Also ready the stories from the past helps understand the conditions some actually lived through. There are happy ones and sad ones.
