Foreward Through the kindness of many friends and neighbours we have compiled this Tweedsmuir History Book. It is not a complete history of Aldershot, but rather a collection of stories, pictures, old papers, and letters of many of the founding families of this area. We hope by this effort to have saved some of the history that otherwise might have been lost by the death of old-timers and their memories. We have tried to contact the members of all these families and if any have been missed, our sincere regret. Many hours of searching, reading, typing, snipping, pasting and lettering have gone into this book, and it has indeed, been a labour of love. Our sincere thanks to all who have helped us in any way.
