February 1st 1878. The building itself no longer exists, but it was situated at the town end of Dundonald Road at roughly the point where the new Sheriff Court car park now is. Grammar took in children from some of the most affluent areas of the town, but also had children living in extreme poverty along the river or &#8216;Swine Row&#8217; as it was called. The river water was used for washing alongside all the animals which drank there. Old records show that many children came to school bare foot and hungry.<!-- x-tinymce\/html --><!-- x-tinymce\/html --><a

St Andrew&#8217;s &amp; St Marnock&#8217;s Parish Church (as we know it now) is clear at the bottom of the shot. The road running up through the middle is Portland Road running up towards Irvine Road. If you turned left after passing the church, there was a short row of terraced buildings and then a gap before houses. The &#8216;gap&#8217; was the playground in Grammar School.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a

We know from class photo information that the lady front row 2nd from left, then front row 3rd from the left in the second picture, is Mrs Mitchell. She had previously been Miss Parker and married later in life, when she was 50. By the school records however, she worked in Grammar from 1934 to at least 1961, so that does not help us much with the pinpointing of a year! The gentlemen in the middle each time is Head Master, Mr Smith Robinson. He was HT from 1949 to 1971.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Mr McQueen, the last ever HT of Grammar School (1971-1975) and first Gargieston PS Head Teacher (1975-1996), we have been able to fill in more information on the photographs.\u00a0This first one, in Mr McQueen&#8217;s opinion, must be around the late 1950s to early 1960s. The second one is certainly the 1960s.<\/p>\n<p>In the second picture we see Mr Smith Robinson sitting with the staff. He retired in 1971 and passed away in 1983 aged 76. To his right ,as we look at the picture is Miss Smith. Mr McQueen remembers her as &#8220;quite a character&#8221;. The lady at the end with her legs crossed is Mrs Elizabeth Rankin. She was qualified as both a PE teacher and a Primary Teacher. She was skilled in calligraphy and her classes always had beautiful handwriting!\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The gentleman at the other end of the front row is Mr Jeffrey Smith. He left Grammar to become Head Teacher at Darvel Primary sometime before 1971. He also wrote material for the BBC, specialising in children&#8217;s history.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 In the middle row standing next to the janitor is Mrs Sadie \/ Sarah Kelly. She arrived at Grammar to do some short-term supply work and ended up staying for 40 years!\u00a0 Thanks to Jimmy Osborne we know the lady in the front row, second from the right is Miss McInnes.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0The tall man in the back row is Mr Bryce. He went on to be a lecturer in Drama at Craigie College of Education. The final piece of information from Mr McQueen is on the lady to Mr Bryce&#8217;s left as we look at the picture.\u00a0 She is Mrs Margaret Parker who went on to be Provost in 1977 and was awarded an MBE. Mrs Parker led a very full life. She was an Ayrshire tennis champion, Burns enthusiast, Chair of the local Duke of Edinburgh\u00a0 &#8211; the list goes on. Her husband, Irvine Parker, was HT at Grange Academy. Mrs Parker past away in 2003, aged 94.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/ea\/gargiestonpsandecc\/kilmarnock-grammar-school\/grammar-mystery-5\/\" rel=\"attachment
