12/11/13 Update from Ken Reynolds " Wally referred to in the photo is my father Walter John Albert Reynolds s/n T/69250, and the Hyslops were the mother and daughter at whose house my father was billeted. After the war my parents kept in touch with the Hyslops and in fact honeymooned on Arran. I do not have any recollection of hearing my father talking about Don but would be interested to know if Nick could throw any light on him. My father served in the LRDG and was badly wounded in action in Syria on 09/06/41 when he took a bullet above and a bullet below his heart along with one threw his left hand from a Vichy French machine gun."

Hi Don was Albert Reuben Donohue. I am the granddaughter of Nancy Hyslop and have been researching the family history, and have just come across these photos of my Grandparents and Great Gran. The Hyslops property was known as 'Andreville' and consisted of two houses, a cottage and a bungalow. It's not uncommon on Arran for a family to have more than one property on their Feu as one or more would be let out to holidaymakers. The cottage is still there opposite Arran High school and has been recently modernised. The bungalow was renamed by new owners to 'Sandmoor'.
