CHURCH OF SCOTLAND Guthrie August 2019 The Manse Dear Friends We are living at the moment in times of unprecedented political uncertainty. In such times it is important to hold fast to those values in life of which Paul wrote in his Letter to the Colossians; “So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Be tolerant with one another and forgive one another….” In so many ways we are so fortunate to live and work in an area such as ours, aware of the circling year, of seedtime and harvest, nature and its wonder, and the value of community. We are daily reminded that amidst change and upheaval there are things that we can hold fast to, not least friendship, care and concern for others.

It may be said, perhaps, that the study of etymology would be Communicated to the Society by Dr Jamieson. less of a conjectural nature, were it directed by some general rules. In every branch of literature there must be exceptions from these; but, in ordinary cases, they are by no means to be neglected. One thing that should be particularly attended to, in this study, is the THE etymology of the names of places, if not a necessary branch, existing, or the original; language of the country. In consequence is certainly an useful appendage, of history. While it relieves the of disregarding this rule, ingenious men have often bewildered mind of the reader, often fatigued by attending to a narrative that themselves ;in seeking an obscure and uncertain etymon, while in general only exhibits the vices of man, and their fatal effects,—it they rejected that which was most simple and obvious.

These accounts were written by the ministers of the time and, together with snippets from other books such as Alex Warden’s “Angus or Forfarshire – The Land and People”, form the core of our knowledge of the Parish’s past. In the last 50 years the Parish and its people have undergone many rapid and significant changes. These have come about through local government reorganisations, easier forms of personal transport and the advent of electricity, but above all, by the massive changes in farming. Dwellings, which were once farmhouses or cottages for farm-workers, have been sold and extensively altered. New houses have been built and manses, and even mansion houses, have been converted to new uses. What used to be a predominantly agricultural community has now changed forever. The last full Statistical Account was published in 1951, with revisions in 1967.
