Wonderful.

My great grandmother Mary Cairns was born in Buckhaven 1874. There were two Mary Cairns born there that year. Mine left with her parents after 1881 census for Smoky Stockport and the cotton mills. Her father Robert had a sister Agnes Cairns b.about 1850 Kirkcaldy who married a coal miner from Buckhaven called Turnbull. I must have distant cousins on this film. Thank you

My Dad was a Bevan Boy in Buchhaven.

Still canny imagine a big guy of six foot three workin doon a coalmine.

God rest his soul.

Watching this makes me wish that my dad was still here to see it. He would have loved this and probably would have recognized some of the people too. Thanks so much for this. It gives us all who weren't born yet a chance to see what Buckhaven was like then. Thank you so much.

[quinnman1971]

@heartthatmatters ,, 100% same comment from myself bud... They should have released it free with the mail years ago.

Then theres me, as soon as i got it, boom, straight onto youtube for the people lol.

[heartthatmatters]

My dad told me lots of stories about Buckhaven growing up, in the 1930s and 1940s. I just had those and photos, I feel like I just went back in time. I love the east coast of Fife.
