| In January 2013 I received an interesting email from Imogen Sawyer of Aberlour, Morayshire. She and her husband had purchased a wooden chest (unseen) at an auction sale in Elgin. After arriving home they opened it and it contained several personal items belonging to Mrs Ruth C Lethem who had presumably passed away. Among the contents were a copy of RCM's book Rousay Roots, a letter from him to Ruth written in 1994 and many photographs of Ruth, her family and friends. Imogen very kindly sent me the photographs. (I have added photos of Ruth and her parents to the Marwick photo page.) The above information on Ruth's marriages came from these photos. I discovered afterwards that Ruth had died in May 2012, age 94, on the Isle of Skye. Her husband Kenneth Lethem had predeceased her. From the photos it appeared that her father Stuart Melrose Marwick had worked abroad for much of his life, including Africa where he had been a manager with the African Lakes Corporation Trading Posts and a river boat captain on the River Niger.
