I believe that one of the members of the St Finnan’s choir at that time was the dentist Dr. Bernard Villeneuve. I believe that he was also a soloist with the choir.
St Finnans used to have a St Andrews concert on the last Friday and Saturday of November. As I remember from the few times I attended, Howard Morris sang with his children and Dr. Villeneuve sang solo. Wow!
People slightly older than me could probably fill in details, but I believe he also sang at a lot of church socials and funerals.

Howie Morris would have been a member during these years. We’re working on finding more names for you Ann.

Would you know who the singers were? Who sang Oh Holy Night and who would have been in this choir at that time?
