History
Amy Ethne O'Beirne (born 14th April 1888) was a student at The Glasgow School of Art between 1915 and 1917, where she attended modelling and then design classes in the evening. It is stated that she was a teacher and resided at Beechwood House, Broomhill.
Amy was born to parents W G O'Beirne, a manufacturing chemist (iodine) and Emily B O'Beirne in Yoker, Dumbartonshire and had five siblings, an older sister and brother and three younger brothers. Her elder brother Reginald was a merchant sailor who came home from India on the "Mulbera" in August 1931 before returning there in January 1932 on the "Morvada", and her youngest brother Fred, an analytical chemist, signed up to the army in 1916, serving with Princess Louise's Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders.
A UK incoming passenger list shows that Amy returned to the country on the "Braemar Castle" ship from Durban, South Africa in May 1958 at the age of 70. She is noted as being single and living in Underwood Street, Shawlands at this time.
