  • From the Outer Hebrides to the Eastern Townships of Canada in the Nineteenth Century
    Margaret Bennett 143 FROM THE OUTER HEBRIDES TO THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS OF CANADA IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Professor Margaret Bennett, Honorary Research Fellow University of St Andrews, Scotland Abstract The Potato Famine of 1846–56 severely affected the West Highlands and Is- lands of Scotland, forcing mass emigration to the New World. Those who settled in Quebec kept alive memories about the homeland, the Atlantic cross- ing, the allocation of land in the Eastern Townships, company houses, pio- neer homesteading, optimism, faith, and community spirit. Only newspapers and official records document the famine, while fireside stories handed down through generations tell of faith, hope, loyalty, honesty, neighbourliness and hard work. Today, Scotland’s “Old Alliance” with France is reflected in a new relationship reviving interest and kinship on both sides of the Atlantic. Résumé La Grande Famine de 1846–1856 a durement affecté les Highlands de l’Ouest et les iles d’Écosse, menant à une émigration forcée vers le Nouveau Monde. Ceux qui se sont installés au Québec ont gardé vivantes les mémoires de la mère-patrie, de la traversée de l’Atlantique, de l’allocation de terres dans les Cantons-de-l’Est, des maisons fournies par les employeurs, de l’installation sur les terres en concession, de l’optimisme, de la foi, et de l’esprit communautaire. Seuls les journaux et les documents officiels racontent la famine alors que les récits au coin du feu transmis de générations en générations parlent de foi, d’espoir, de loyauté, d’honnêteté, d’entraide entre voisins et de durs labeurs.

  • Aspects of the Religious History of Lewis
    ASPECTS OF THE RELIGIOUS HISTORY OF LEWIS Rev. Murdo Macaulay was born in Upper Carloway, Lewis, the eldest child of a family of four boys and two girls. On the day of his birth the famous and saintly Mrs Maclver of Carloway predicted that he was to be a minister of the Gospel. This prediction, of which he had been informed, appeared to have no particular bearing upon his early career. It was not until the great spiritual revival, which began in the district of Carloway a few years before the outbreak of the Second Worid War, that Mr Macaulay came to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. Whatever thoughts he may have entertained previously, it was in a prisoner of war camp in Germany that he publicly made known his decision to respond to his call to the ministry of the Free Church. The Lord's sovereignty in preparing him for the ministry could make interesting reading. It included a full secondary education, a number of years of military training, some years in business where he came to understand the foibles of the public whom he had to serve, a graduation course at Edinburgh University and a divinity Course in Up to the Disruption of 1843 the Free Church College. Mr Macaulay has a studious mind, a retentive memory, and scholastic ability for research. He has a good working knowledge of six languages, yet he is more concerned about stating facts than about This document is scanned for research and appears never to have been clothing them in attractive language.

  • Review of Education Provision at Carloway School
    BCR36101 EDUCATION AND CHILDREN’S SERVICES COMMITTEE 3 SEPTEMBER 2013 SCHOOL CATCHMENT AREA BOUNDARIES FOR LIONEL/SGOIL AN TAOBH SIAR AND LEVERHULME MEMORIAL/SIR E SCOTT AND SHAWBOST/BREASCLETE Report by Director of Education and Children’s Services PURPOSE OF REPORT To seek permission to consult on proposed revisions to school catchment areas. COMPETENCE 1.1 There are no legal, financial, equalities or other constraints to the recommendation being implemented. SUMMARY 2.1 While there is no legal requirement for a school to have a defined catchment area, local authorities use the definition as an administrative tool so that children living within a catchment area are normally provided with a place at the school serving that area. 2.2 Subsequent to the School Estate Review, resulting in the closure of 9 primary schools and one S1/2 secondary provision at Shawbost School, it is necessary to review school catchment areas to ensure that children and young people have access to the school closest to their home address. Currently a number of anomalies exist whereby children and young people’s catchment areas result in them travelling to schools a significant distance from their home when there is a closer school available. In these circumstances, in order for parents to enrol their children in the school closest to their home, they have to submit a placing request and thereby incur additional transport costs. 2.4 In order to address these anomalies this Report proposes to formally consult on the catchment areas of the following schools: Lionel School/Sgoil an Taobh Siar Leverhulme Memorial School/Sir E Scott School Shawbost School/Breasclete School 2.5 Attached to this Report at Appendix 1 is the current and proposed school catchment by village.
