Busbie Drive Ardrossan
Re: Busbie Drive Ardrossan
A family of Dochertys lived in Busbie Drive until they moved round the corner to Ailsa Gardens, where some of them might still be.
In the second of George's pictures, on the left-hand side, the first block of four flats, left-hand again, downstairs (with the car parked on the driveway or on that of the semi-detached next door) is the Docherty's former home. Mickey and Philomena were the parents and they had around eight children. The parents came originally from Inishowen and arrived in Ardrossan via Glasgow.
