Black's Morayshire Directory, Including the Upper District of Banffshire
tfaU. 2*2. i m HE MOR CTORY. * i e^ % / X BLACKS MORAYSHIRE DIRECTORY, INCLUDING THE UPPER DISTRICTOF BANFFSHIRE. 1863^ ELGIN : PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY JAMES BLACK, ELGIN COURANT OFFICE. SOLD BY THE AGENTS FOR THE COURANT; AND BY ALL BOOKSELLERS. : ELGIN PRINTED AT THE COURANT OFFICE, PREFACE, Thu ''Morayshire Directory" is issued in the hope that it will be found satisfactorily comprehensive and reliably accurate, The greatest possible care has been taken in verifying every particular contained in it ; but, where names and details are so numerous, absolute accuracy is almost impossible. A few changes have taken place since the first sheets were printed, but, so far as is known, they are unimportant, It is believed the Directory now issued may be fully depended upon as a Book of Reference, and a Guide for the County of Moray and the Upper District of Banffshire, Giving names and information for each town arid parish so fully, which has never before been attempted in a Directory for any County in the JTorth of Scotland, has enlarged the present work to a size far beyond anticipation, and has involved much expense, labour, and loss of time. It is hoped, however, that the completeness and accuracy of the Book, on which its value depends, will explain and atone for a little delay in its appearance. It has become so large that it could not be sold at the figure first mentioned without loss of money to a large extent, The price has therefore been fixed at Two and Sixpence, in order, if possible, to cover outlays, Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from National Library of Scotland http://www.archive.org/details/blacksmorayshire1863dire INDEX. -

INGRAM Mark well her bulwarks, set np her houses, that ye may tell them that come after." EDINBURGH R. GRANT & SON 107 PRINCES STREET 1907 [All rights reserved] "BX 7o Printed by BALLANTYNE, HANSON &* Co. At the Ballantyne Press 12 006 APR 1 1 1988 Frontispiece PREFACE LITTLE, it may be thought, considering the wealth of literature upon the subject, remains to be said of Edinburgh s historic past, that perpetually fascinating theme, wherein religion and politics are never far asunder. Yet there is one aspect of it that has as yet been only glanced at, and that is, the remarkably interest ing connection between the Jacobite party and the old Episcopal Church of the land, which chose, at the Revolution of 1689, to be disestablished and disendowed rather than deny its sworn allegiance to the absent King James VII.; and in Edinburgh it is the congregation of St. Paul s in Carrubber s Close, claiming, as it does, unbroken descent from that ejected from St. Giles in 1689, that has preserved through the centuries the memory of that heroic stand. This is why, while deeply impressed with the evolution of the present sanctuary, the home of so much that is beautiful in worship and work, from the despised meeting-house in which the evicted worshippers took refuge so long ago, I, who have ties with both, have chosen to dwell at greater length on the earlier part of its history. -
ANGLO-SCOTTISH TRACTS, 1701-1714 a Descriptive Checklist
ANGLO-SCOTTISH TRACTS, 1701-1714 A Descriptive Checklist Compiled by W. R. and V. B. McLeod UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES 1979 University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 44 ANGLO-SCOTTISH TRACTS, 1701-1714 A Descriptive Checklist Compiled by W. R. and V. B. McLeod UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES 1979 PRINTED IN LAWRENCE, KANSAS, U.S.A, BY THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS PRINTING SERVICE To Helen and Don CONTENTS PREFACE « LIBRARY SYMBOLS XV ABBREVIATIONS XV THE CHECKLIST 1 BIOGRAPHIES 154 CHRONOLOGICAL INDEX 210 VII PREFACE For some years we have been interested in various aspects of a bibliography of works published during the reign of Queen Anne, and in particular in a working checklist of Anglo-Scottish materials from the conclusion of Wing's Short-Title Catalogue, 164-1-1700 to Anne's death in the late summer of 1714. We originally became interested in the union of 1707, and the vast quantity of pamphlets and other printed materials which that union and its subsequent history provoked. Even a superficial examination revealed numerous works in almost every major repository in the United States and in Great Britain; there had never been a bibliographical survey of such works and much confusion existed in contemporary as well as in later histories as to their number and content. Since some major and many more minor figures contributed writings to the Anglo-Scottish debate, both the literary and the political historian face controversy and disagreement in handling Daniel Defoe, Charles Leslie, An• drew Fletcher, George Ridpath, James Hodges, and others. Basically, this checklist attempts to do nothing more than to clear a path for the historian who seeks to write a history of the union in any or all of its many aspects, and to facilitate the study of such men as Defoe and Ridpath. -
