Lord Fraser to Highlight Red Lichties' Impact on the World
1 For immediate release: March 20 2008 Lord Fraser to highlight Red Lichties’ impact on the world Next time you lick a stamp or switch on a light, consider - it all began in Arbroath! This will be the contention of former Lord Advocate, Lord Fraser of Carmyllie, QC when he makes the case at Angus College (Tuesday 25 March) for the significant contribution that the people of Arbroath have made to the rest of the world. David Dunbar Buick, the founder of one of the mightiest car companies the world has ever known, was born in Arbroath. William Small, a son of the manse at Carmyllie, played a major part in the great American Declaration of Independence and, Lord Fraser will argue, Roger Federer would still be herding cattle in the Alps, had it not been for Alexander Shanks from Arbroath. Lord Fraser’s free public talk, to which all are welcome, is part of the RSE@Arbroath programme which was formally launched on Monday 25 February at Angus College. The Arbroath project has developed activities with and for young people, and the wider public, and includes the arts and humanities as well as science and technology based subjects. Classes and workshops have been arranged for both Primary and Secondary school students and a series of both school and public lectures on interdisciplinary topics has also been organised. Notes for Editors About Lord Fraser Peter Fraser represented Arbroath for 8 years in the House of Commons and he is now in the House of Lords. He was Solicitor-General for Scotland, Lord Advocate, Minister of State at the Scottish Office and Minister for Energy. -

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography. -

D., April)l930. INTRODUCTION. I Angus or Forfarshire is emphatically a microcosm of Scotland. Its various and distinct features whether geographical, historical, ecclesiastical, or archaeolog- :ical, mark the county as peculiarly Scottish. Angus presents valley, rook, and hill. Through the heart of the county runs that fine expanse of fertile land, known as Strathmore, the big valley. The Sidlaw Hills separ- :ate Strathmore from Strathbeg, the little valley, through which flows the Lunan. The eounty is bounded on the north by the "Braes of Angus", consisting of the spurs of the Grampians,and the valleys that are formed by them: Glenisla, Glenprosen, Clova, Lethnot, and Glenesk. -

FINAL REPORT STDT ANGUS PROJECT 2001 2019 Edition
To Dance – Angus Style 1998–2001 by Traditional Dance Development Officer Mats Melin Final Report with added Comments and Reflections. An Analysis of Dancing Style in Angus. 2019 INTRODUCTORY NOTE to 2019 EDITION: This is a revised edition of a report submitted by Mats Melin in his capacity as Traditional Dance Development Officer for Angus on his Scottish Traditions of Dance Trust project activities in Angus, December 2001. The Scottish Traditions of Dance Trust ran from 1995 to 2011 as the umbrella body across all traditions of dance. Currently the Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland has, in a slightly different capacity, taken its place. The original report document was revised partially by the STDT Board in 2002 but the Report was never finished as far as I know. Whether it was submitted to the Scottish Arts Council at the time is not clear either. It cannot be found online in the Scottish Arts Council’s archived online depository. Recently I felt it would be worthwhile to the Scottish Arts and Dance community (and beyond) that the information of the project was made available. I went through my archived files and found more report entries which have been added to this version. The text of the original report in its final draft has not been altered. The style of reporting has been left as per the original date. Only some missing data left out originally has been added, and the appendices were added as found. The Dance analysis appendix and the Third Statistical Accounts for Angus 1975 summary were submitted in 2001 but were excluded in the final STDT draft of the original report. -
