  • 1861 Parochial Directory for Fife and Kinross
    1861 Parochial Directory - Newburgh http://fifefhs.org/Records/Directory/newburgh.htm EXCERPTS FROM THE 1861 PAROCHIAL DIRECTORY FOR FIFE AND KINROSS PARISH OF NEWBURGH. THIS PARISH, containing the Royal Burgh of Newburgh, forms the boundary of the County on the north-west border. It is of a very irregular form, a portion of it lying along the margin of the Tay, while the remaining section stretches to the south, across the ridge of the Ochils. The whole has the appearance of an ill-shaped boot, or of the letter L, inverted. The portion which stretches along the Tay is about two miles in length, by scarcely a half in breadth; while the other portion is nearly three miles in length from north to south, by three quarters of a mile in breadth. It is bounded on the north by the Tay, on the west partly by the parish of Abdie, and partly by that of Abernethy in Perthshire, and on the south by Abernethy, Auchtermuchty, Collessie, and Abdie. The northern section is a beautiful level along the shore of the Tay, where the town of Newburgh is situated, and which is finely wooded in various parts of its surface. The southern portion, which occupies the ridge of the Ochils, is an alternate series of hills and valleys ; the former in one place, Craigsparrow, rising as high as 600 feet, and in another, the Blackcairn, 800 feet above the sea. The soil of the flat district is a very fertile clay, equal to that of the best parts of the Carse of Gowrie ; while that of the upper district is, for the most part, either a loose black loam, or a more compact ferruginous mould ; and, although shallow, is very fertile.

  • John Ballingall (1824-1912): Fife’S Oldest Agriculturalist by His Distant First Cousin, Michael T
    John Ballingall (1824-1912): Fife’s Oldest Agriculturalist By His Distant First Cousin, Michael T. Tracy The day after the death of John Ballingall the Dundee Courier Newspaper wrote: “Dunbog is mourning today the loss of its grand old man – honest John – who had gone out and in amongst its people for 80 years, and whose warm heart and kindly disposition was only known to those with whom he came most closely in contact. Mr. Ballingall was born a farmer, having inherited the farming instinct from a worthy sire, and having devoted all his life to the art of making two blades of grass grow where only one grew before. For many years his acreage on the farms of Dunbog, Higham, and Rumeldry exceeded 1,500, and at the same period he managed the adjoining farms of Glenduckie, Aytoun, and Balmeadie, another 1,000 acres, for Mr. Carnegie, and the work seemed to lie lightly on his shoulders. It might be truly said of him that he never touched any land without adorning it so far as high cultivation and fertility were concerned. He was an outstanding example of one who knew how to bring crop and stock to perfection. His worth and experience were recognized by his holding the position of director of the H. [Highland] and A. [Agricultural] Society for many years. For several generations he was the life and soul of his district, and one of the kindest and best friends and neighbours that one could conceive. Possessed of a ready wit and repartee he made himself agreeable, and even fascinating to young and old, and evinced great interest in the welfare and happiness of others.

  • The Place Names of Fife and Kinross
    1 n tllif G i* THE PLACE NAMES OF FIFE AND KINROSS THE PLACE NAMES OF FIFE AND KINROSS BY W. J. N. LIDDALL M.A. EDIN., B.A. LOND. , ADVOCATE EDINBURGH WILLIAM GREEN & SONS 1896 TO M. J. G. MACKAY, M.A., LL.D., Advocate, SHERIFF OF FIFE AND KINROSS, AN ACCOMPLISHED WORKER IN THE FIELD OF HISTORICAL RESEARCH. INTRODUCTION The following work has two objects in view. The first is to enable the general reader to acquire a knowledge of the significance of the names of places around him—names he is daily using. A greater interest is popularly taken in this subject than is apt to be supposed, and excellent proof of this is afforded by the existence of the strange corruptions which place names are wont to assume by reason of the effort on the part of people to give some meaning to words otherwise unintelligible to them. The other object of the book is to place the results of the writer's research at the disposal of students of the same subject, or of those sciences, such as history, to which it may be auxiliary. The indisputable conclusion to which an analysis of Fife—and Kinross for this purpose may be considered a Fife— part of place names conducts is, that the nomen- clature of the county may be described as purely of Goidelic origin, that is to say, as belonging to the Irish branch of the Celtic dialects, and as perfectly free from Brythonic admixture. There are a few names of Teutonic origin, but these are, so to speak, accidental to the topography of Fife.

  • George Buist (1809-1889): Tenant Farmer and Proprietor of Ormiston, Abdie Parish, Fife by His Distant First Cousin, Michael T. Tracy
    George Buist (1809-1889): Tenant Farmer and Proprietor of Ormiston, Abdie Parish, Fife By His Distant First Cousin, Michael T. Tracy He was said to have “had the heart to feel and the hand to give.”1 George Buist was known for his many acts of benevolence throughout his 80 years of life. He was born at Weddersbie, Collessie Parish and at an early age spent the rest of his childhood at Berryhill, Abdie Parish. He was granted the use of his father’s farm of Ormiston in Abdie Parish where he was a tenant farmer until his father’s death in 1865 when he received proprietorship of its lands. However, three years later tragedy would befall him as the dwelling house would be destroyed by fire. Only by Buist’s own persistence and efforts was his dwelling house at Ormiston was rebuilt in a short period of time. George Buist never married and with advancing age, he decided to sell the property during the summer of 1877.2 He would later move to Edinburgh and finally settled at 25 Broughton Place where he lived for the rest of his life. This then is the narrative of the life and times of George Buist. Early years George Buist was born on Tuesday, 21 March 1809 at Weddersbie, Collessie Parish, Fife.3 He was the first child of Henry Buist (1771-1865), a proprietor of farms, and Helen Walker. He was baptized on Tuesday, 18 April 1809 at Collessie Parish Church.4 Fig.1.
