Kitty Fraser


From Moriston Matters, Issue 23, February 1981.

The Glen entered 1981 under the shadow of the deaths of two of its native citizens - James Steele and Catherine Fraser.

Kitty Fraser, as we all knew her came from the other end of the Glen, from the Keeper's house at Ceannacroc where her father, Tom, was employed in the early years of the century. Later he retired to West Dalcattaig and some years after his death she moved with her mother and brother, Willie, to Darroch View in the Street, whence Kitty moved, less than a year ago, to a single person's house in Balmacaan Road, Drumnadrochit, where she was very happy. She trained as a tailoress in Inverness and this was reflected in the neatness of her dress at all times. She devoted herself to looking after her mother and Willie until their deaths, and will be remembered for her quiet and unobtrusive ways. She died on December 31st and to her cousins in Inverness and elsewhere we extend our sympathy.
