PREFACE. In issning the seventh edition of the Helensburgh Direc- tory, the publishers, remembering the kind apprecia- tion it received when published by the late Mr Battrum, trust that it will meet with a similar reception. Although imperfect in many respects, considerabie care has been expended in its compiling. It is now larger than anj^ previous issue, and the publishers doubt not it will be found useful as a book of reference in this daily increasing district. The map this year has been improved, showing the new feus, houses, and streets that have been made ; and, altogether, every effort has been made to render tbe Directory worthy of the town and neighbourhood.

The earliest notice of a public kind concerning Helensburgh appears in an extinct newspaper, called the Glasgow Journal^ under date 11th January, 1776, in the form of an advertise- ment, and runs thus : ** Notice. —To be fued immediately, for building upon, at a very reasonable rate, a considerable piece of ground upon the shore of Malig, opposite Greenock. The land lies on both sides of the road leading from Dumbarton to the Kirk of Row. The ground will be regularly laid out for houses and gardens, to be built according to a plan, &c. There is a freestone quarry on tbe ground. "For the accommodation of the feuars, the proprietor is to encloaa a large field for grazing their milk cows, &c. "N.B. —Bonnet-makers, stocking, linen, and woollen weavers, will meet with proper encouragement. There is a large boat building at the place for ferrying men and horses with chaises." The idea of founding a town on these shores suggested itself to the great-grandfather of the present Sir James Colquhoun of Luss, who purchased the land of Malig or Milrigs from Sir John Shaw of Greenock, and in further- ance of this design, laid it out in prospective streets, and advertised it to the public. The town itself, as appears from the advertisement, was nameless for some years. A very old form of the name of the barony was Muleig, with which the local pronunciation accords, and the infant town was 10 HELENSBURGH GUIDE. recognised under tliat patronymic, or tlie more unmeaning one of tlie New Town, till the course of events brought a change. Probably its name was a matter of considerable family discussion, till at last some ingenious friend solved the difficulty by happily suggesting it should be called after the lady of its new owner, "Helensburgh." A more noble and permanent memorial of that distinguished lady could hardly have been devised than this happy suggestion gave birth to. Notwithstanding the tempting advertisement above quoted it seems to have made slow progress for many a year. In 1794, we find from an old rental-book, that there were only about seventeen houses built on the lands, and the gross feu-duty paid to the superior amounted to only .£8 16s. 8d. Of the few houses then built, only one or two now stand.* Helensburgh was created a free burgh of barony by royal charter, dated 28th July, 1802. Under this charter, the government of the burgh is committed to a provost, two bailies, and four councillors, and weekly markets and four * The following seem to have been the first adventurous feuars, and the rates of feu-duty paid by them. What a contrast it affords be- twixt the value of land half a century since and its price now ! We have heard it said, that the whole shore ground from the pier to the east boundary of the town was offered at a perpetual rent of £1 to the ancestor of one of the Malig feuars, and refused as too serious a speculation.

In a community of seventeen houseliolders, one naturally thinks that considerable in- genuity must have been exercised at times to find a staff of seven such officials to govern the other ten, and we conse- quently find among the old records repeated instances of householders fined for failure to accept the honour conferred on them by their townsmen. As in some degree throwing a measure of light on the past history of this burgh, v/e give a few extracts from the older official records. There is not much amusement to be gleaned from them, but they may afford insight into the inner life of an infant town, and thus prove of some interest to the curious in such matters : EXTRACTS moM RECOEDS of the TOWN COUNCIL of HELENSBURGH. By-Laws. Helensburgh, WihNov., 1807. Marhets and Fairs. —The Magistrates and Town Council convened, ** agreed that the annual markets of Helensburgh should be published in the newspapers and handbills ; and likewise inserted in the alman- ack, and also the following articles concerning the same—viz., all cattle coming and entering the market for sale, shall pay the follow- ing dues:—For each cow or horse a penny ; sixpence for each score of sheep ; a sixpence for each sow ; and if sold to pay the above same rates when returning from the market.

  • Dumbarton House Annual Report
    Dumbarton House Annual Report Fiscal Year 2013 September 2012 – August 2013 Headquarters & Museum ~ The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America Letter from the Executive Director and chairman Dear Friends, Our temporary exhibition this past year—Metamo’rphosis I—provides a fitting theme for our 2013 fiscal year activities here at Dumbarton House, with exciting transformations afoot at your NSCDA national headquarters and museum. In the museum, new collections acquisitions have allowed us to enrich our interpretation of life in our national capital’s earliest days, while the Metamo’rphosis I exhibition encouraged contemporary artists to find inspiration for their modern creations in our historic collection. In the museum interiors, the Dining Room received a stunning facelift, returning it to its authentic Federal period aesthetic. Outside, a transformation of another sort commenced with extensive upgrades to irrigation and garden lighting systems performed alongside emergency repairs of the air conditioning compressor and multiple sink holes. Inside, summer renovations carved out dedicated collections storage space from a former custodial supply closet and office space, and created a headquarters entrance, reception, meeting, and office space in the building’s west wing. Meanwhile, a team of skilled engineers, conservators, preservation architects, and sustainability consultants conducted a year-long study of the site’s HVAC system, funded through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The NSCDA 2012 Biennial kick-started this year of metamorphoses as members elected new national leadership (including Anna Duff as new NSCDA Vice President-Headquarters, Dumbarton House) and unveiled an engaging new brand for the Society. Our numerous museum programs, serving just under 20,000 this past year, and these numerous preservation efforts would not be possible without the generous support of friends like you from across the country.

  • Farwell to Feudalism
    Burke's Landed Gentry - The Kingdom in Scotland This pdf was generated from www.burkespeerage.com/articles/scotland/page14e.aspx FAREWELL TO FEUDALISM By David Sellar, Honorary Fellow, Faculty of Law, University of Edinburgh "The feudal system of land tenure, that is to say the entire system whereby land is held by a vassal on perpetual tenure from a superior is, on the appointed day, abolished". So runs the Sixth Act to be passed in the first term of the reconvened Scottish Parliament, The Abolition of Feudal Tenure etc (Scotland) Act 2000. The Act is welcome. By the end of the second millennium the feudal system had long outlived its usefulness, even as a legal construct, and had few, if any defenders. As the Scottish Law Commission commented in 1999, "The main reason for recommending the abolition of the feudal system of land tenure is that it has degenerated from a living system of land tenure with both good and bad features into some-thing which, in the case of many but not all superiors, is little more than an instrument for extracting money". The demise of feudalism brings to an end a story which began almost a thousand years ago, and which has involved all of Scotland's leading families. In England the advent of feudalism is often associated with the Norman Conquest of 1066. That Conquest certainly marked a new beginning in landownership which paved the way for the distinctive Anglo-Norman variety of feudalism. There was a sudden and virtually clean sweep of the major landowners. By the date of the Domesday Survey in 1086, only two major landowners of pre-Conquest vintage were left south of the River Tees holding their land direct of the crown: Thurkell of Arden (from whom the Arden family descend), and Colswein of Lincoln.

  • The Case of Orkney in Eighteenth-Century Scotland
    Meiji Journal of Political Science and Economics Volume 3, 2014 The Enlightenment Idea of Improvement and its Discontents: The Case of Orkney in Eighteenth-Century Scotland Hiroyuki Furuya Associate Professor of the History of Economic Thought, Tokushima Bunri University, Japan Abstract The aim of this paper is to offer a view of improvement emerged in the age of Enlightenment in Scotland. This paper examines an economic debate that took place in the context of a bitterly-fought legal battle referred to as the Pundlar Process (1733–1759). It was contested between the Earl of Morton, who was a feudal superior of Orkney and Shetland, and local lairds. This paper focuses on two contemporary documents concerning the lairds as plaintiffs and Morton as defendant respectively: James Mackenzie’s The General Grievances and Oppression of the Isles of Orkney and Shetland (1750), and Thomas Hepburn’s A Letter to a Gentleman from his Friend in Orkney, Containing the True Causes of the Poverty of that Country (1760). This paper seeks to illuminate the contrasts revealed during the age of Enlightenment in Scotland by focusing on the conflict between those who tried to promote ‘improvement’ in order to adapt the economy to increased competition brought about by trade expansion after the Acts of Union of 1707, and those in the traditional, local communities who sought out alternative ways to accommodate themselves to this change. Keywords: Scottish Enlightenment, Improvement, Orkney, Pundlar Process, Thomas Hepburn 1. Introduction The age of Enlightenment in Scotland is usually associated with promising prospects such as innovations in the fields of philosophy, literature and economic thought, improvements to agricultural methods, and the dawn of the industrial revolution (Smout, 1983).
