Re: Tay Bridge Disaster
Hello Annette,
Yes, it was interesting. It must have been especially difficult for the families whose loved-one’s body wasn’t found for quite some time or was never found.
At least there’s room on the memorials for any who turn up later and whose deaths were not registered. Perhaps they could have added a short note of respect for any that may have been missed. http://i4.dailyrecord.co.uk/incoming/ar ... 969496.jpg
