Mary HARRIS Obituary

Here's other family of Mary (Throll) Harris, from the 1970's. Winifred and Bernie Pullinger visited me and my family over in Glasgow, Scotland in the 1970's when I was still at Primary school, and Tommy and Sadie Throll also from New Zealand, were there too!

In loving memory of Mary Throll, she visited us with her husband Leslie back in 1994-1995 to Cumbernauld and Glasgow at the time, we made Mary and Leslie very welcome in our homes and talked about her Uncles and relatives from Glasgow including Sarah Gallagher - who was born Sadie Throll with her sister Helen and brother Tommy Throll, Helen Throll got married and had two sons, Max and Tom McLean... As for Tommy Throll - he got married to a Sadie, who had Winifred and another daughter! When mary and Leslie visited us at the time, she mentioned a William Throll. Sadie / Sarah Throll married a Daniel Gallagher and had two kids, mu mother Anne / Nancy Gallagher & John Gallagher! My mum married a John Rennie and had me! Again, Our thoughts here in Glasgow, and in Cumbernauld, Scotland are with Les & family. Kind regards, john Rennie. x x x
