Executive Summary • Recent research has highlighted an increasing separation of work and residential location as commuting journey lengths increase. This is particularly the case for rural residents, who tend to have longer commutes than urban residents. Whilst commuters bring money to their place of residence that has been earned outside the locality, they also represent a leakage of money from the locality often commuting for work is associated with commuting for other activities, including retail and leisure spending.

  • Till River Restoration Strategy Provides a Good Starting Point and Direction of Travel on Which to Base the Recovery of the Till Rivers SSSI
    River Till Restoration Strategy A River Till Restoration Strategy Natural England Environment Agency Tweed Forum Foreword The River Till Restoration Strategy This Strategy provides a guide for protecting the best of the Till river system and for improving those sections which are not currently achieving their potential conservation value. As far as possible, the aim is to assist the river to recover by allowing natural processes to return in areas where these are constrained by human intervention. This will be a long term process. Human intervention goes back centuries as man has increasingly sought to benefit from the agricultural potential of the catchment. This human need is will continue to grow, influenced strongly by population growth and environmental factors, such as climate change. Implementing the strategy has to strike a balance between the ideal ecological outcomes and the evolving economic and social needs of the communities which live and work in the catchment. How it is implemented will require consensus, flexibility and adaptability to changing circumstances. The Till River Restoration Strategy provides a good starting point and direction of travel on which to base the recovery of the Till Rivers SSSI.

    Descendants of Thomas Craigs (ca 1770 – 30 Sep 1860) and first wife Ann Crosby (ca 1770 – 1811) and second wife Margaret Patterson (ca 1780 – 10 Sep 1843) Undocumented Pre-immigrant Generation ************************************************** 1. Mr Craigs. (In order to include the families of both marriages of Thomas Craigs in this report, it was necessary to put in his father as Mr Craigs.) Children: 2 i. Thomas Craigs First Immigrant Generation ************************************************** 2. Thomas Craigs. Son of Mr Craigs. Born Approx 1770 in Lanton, Northumberland, England. Died 30 Sep 1860 in Harvey. Buried in Harvey Settlement Cemetery. Occupation Hand Loom Weaver. Religion Presbyterian. The spelling of the surname became "Craig" in many of the families. For full details on the Craig Family, see the genealogy book, "The Craigs of Harvey Settlement, Red Rock and the Pontiac" by Helen C. Craig. The following excerpt is copied from the book: "Thomas Craigs was born in Lanton, Northumberland County, England, a small place near the border of Scotland. Little is known about his early life. Presbyterian Church records in Kirknewton and Wooler provide us with information about marriages, deaths and baptisms of his children. His first wife, Ann Crosby, died in 1811 at the age of 41 and was buried from the Kirknewton Church. (LDS Film 0252591) For his second marriage a year later, his banns were read in Kirknewton prior to his marriage to Margaret Patterson. It would be assumed that Margaret was unable to write as she signed the marriage register with an "x". She was from Kimmerston according to "her book" that came with them to Canada so perhaps she did know how to read.
