His father was Thomas Craig, a schoolmaster, who was born c.1858 in Holywood, Dumfriesshire. His mother Elizabeth Carruthers was born c.1862 at Applegarth, Dumfriesshire.

Alexander was 7 years old and had 3 older siblings (Jane, Mary and William) and 3 younger siblings (Margaret, Elizabeth and James). Alexander's schooling is unknown, but he probably attended Johnstone School, where his father was headmaster, and maybe later moved to Dumfries Academy. He attended Edinburgh University as a medical student, graduating MB ChB in 1917. In the 1911 census he may have been living in Dalkeith, outside Edinburgh. (Scotlands People index lists an Alexander C. C.

  • EXECUTIVE SUMMARY South West Scotland Transport Study: Initial Appraisal Case for Change
    January 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY South West Scotland Transport Study: Initial Appraisal Case for Change Executive Summary Background In the 2017/18 Programme for Government, the Scottish Government committed to commence work for the second Strategic Transport Projects Review (STPR2) in the Dumfries and Galloway area. Responding to this commitment, AECOM and Stantec were commissioned to carry out the first stage in the Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) process, researching the case for investment in potential transport interventions in the South West of Scotland through an Initial Appraisal: Case for Change study. The key aim of the work is to consider the rationale for improvements to road, rail, public transport and active travel on key strategic corridors in the South West of Scotland, including those served by the A75 and A77, with a focus on access to the ports at Cairnryan. The study area includes Dumfries & Galloway and the southern extents of South Ayrshire and East Ayrshire and has focused on the following strategic corridors: • Gretna – Stranraer • South of Ayr – Stranraer • Dumfries – Cumnock Figure 1: South West Scotland Transport Study - Study Area • Dumfries – Lockerbie and Moffat Approach The Initial Appraisal: Case for Change constitutes the first stage of STAG and involves the following core tasks: • Analysis of Problems and Opportunities: Establish the evidence base for problems and issues linked to transport on key corridors across the South West of Scotland drawing on targeted data analysis and engagement with the public and key stakeholders; • Objective Setting: Develop initial Transport Planning Objectives to encapsulate the aims of any interventions and to guide the development of solutions; and • Option Generation, Sifting and Development: Develop a long list of multi-modal options to address the identified problems and opportunities, and undertake a process of option sifting and development leading to the identification of a short list of interventions recommended for progression towards Preliminary Appraisal.

In the event of suitable curling conditions prevailing, there was an accepted routine of play. It commenced with the parish medal, which was played for over two days by members of the Society. Spiels between Lochmaben and other parishes then followed. Teams from Dryfesdale, Tinwald and Dumfries were usually among the first to be challenged, and consequently appear most frequently in the Minute Book. If the cold spell continued, matches were arranged against other parishes, including Corrie and Hutton, Kirkmahoe, Kirkmichael, and Johnstone. The large choice of curling venues within these Dumfriesshire parishes was well used, and provided varied conditions for the matches. During the later nineteenth century, Lochmaben’s traditional fixture list expanded to include in- house competitions for pairs of stones presented to the Society by donors.
