KildareNow readers help urgent letters get to man with Kildare links after appeal

KildareNow readers have helped a woman send urgent letters to a man she was trying to locate.

Last week, a woman living in Scotland contacted KildareNow in an effort to send on undelivered letters to a Mr James Docherty.

The reader, who lives in Port Glasgow town - about 30 minutes from Glasgow city, said: "Thank you for your help - I have found him."

The woman had received several letters for James Docherty.

She said she had looked around her estate and put on a Facebook message looking for him, but to no avail.

She believed that Mr Docherty lived at one time in Ruanbeg, Kildare Town - but has family connections to Scotland.

The reader added: "Mr Docherty has never lived in my address, so it's unknown to me why his mail has come here. "I would like to send them on to him as I believe they are important."
