  • 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.

  • Introduction. Bonhill Parish in Olden Times, According to Early Charters, Was Spelt “Bochlul” “Buthelulle” and “Bohtlul”
    Introduction. Bonhill Parish in olden times, according to early charters, was spelt “Bochlul” “Buthelulle” and “Bohtlul”. The Parish derives its name from the Gaelic word Bog-n’- uill, meaning “foot of the rivulet”. Gradually through the years the word changed until we now have Bonhill. The villages of Bonhill Parish are better known as the Vale of Leven and are named Bonhill, Jamestown, Balloch and Alexandria. They are all situated in the Leven Valley through which the river Leven flows, the second swiftest river in Scotland. According to reliable authorities the first reference to Bonhill Parish, that so far has been found, is in a charter of 1270. This charter was granted by Maldowen, the third Earl of Lennox in confirming a grant made to the church at Glasgow of “the land of Hachenkeroch, in the Parish of Buthelulle”. The Vale of Leven is bounded on the north by Loch Lomond on the south by the Burgh of Dumbarton, the tail end of the Grampians on the west and a lesser range of hills on· the east. The Vale of Leven is famous for its romantic beauty and go where you will there is no place to compare with “the beautiful Vale”. There is one snag and that is capitalism. The industrialists in erecting their factories gave no consideration to the beauty of the valley and ugly factories were dumped down with large chimney stalks reaching to the sky, belching foul black smoke. The Vale of Leven is the gateway to Loch Lomond, the most beautiful Loch in the world.

  • West Dunbartonshire Council
    WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL Report by the Chief Executive Community Participation Committee: 19 November 2008 ___________________________________________________________________ Subject: Scottish Parliament Constituency Boundaries 1. Purpose 1.1 The Committee, at its meeting on 17 September 2008, requested a background report on the current proposals to amend the constituency boundaries for the Scottish Parliament. 2. Background 2.1 Legislation provides for regular reviews of constituency boundaries and the new boundaries will be in effect for the next Scottish Parliament elections to be held in May 2011. Reviews are carried out by the Boundaries Commission for Scotland. 2.2 The Commission published its provisional proposals for the review on 14 February 2008. These proposals advertised in the local press and notices with explanatory information were lodged for consultation in council offices and main libraries. The proposals were submitted to Council at its meeting of 27 February. They comprise:- 1) linking two of West Dunbartonshire’s wards, Clydebank Central and Clydebank Waterfront, with part of the Renfrewshire Council area to create the North Renfrewshire and Clydebank Burgh Constituency; and 2) joining the Kilpatrick Ward with Dumbarton, Lomond and Leven wards and two wards of Argyll and Bute Council to form the Dumbarton and Helensburgh County Constituency. 2.3 The Council duly objected to the proposals for both constituencies on the grounds that Kilpatrick Ward should not be split from the other two Clydebank wards and that the linking of Clydebank Central and Clydebank Waterfront wards with areas in Renfrewshire Council was anomalous and unacceptable. 2.4 Where a local authority submits an objection to a proposed boundary, a Local Inquiry must be held.
