    Inventory Dep.240 Messrs Russel and Aitken Stored at CB, Phase 1, Level2 Dep.240/1-31 is at GB National Library of Scotland Manuscripts Division George IV Bridge Edinburgh EH1 1EW Tel: 0131-466 2812 Fax: 0131-466 2811 E-mail: [email protected] © Trustees of the National Library of Scotland Papers from the archives of Messrs Russel and Aitken, Writers, Falkirk. This deposit is a selection made from the archives of Russel and Aitken in Falkirk. It consists of material gathered by the firm while acting as executors, trustees, or liquidators in the course of its normal legal business, and of material brought together by James Russel sen, (1787-1858), James Russel jun (d.1860), and Henry Aitken (d.ca.1900), partners in the firm, in connection with their various mining and industrial undertakings. In the former category the papers relating to the Falkirk Gas Co and its successors, the Stirlingshire Midland Junction Railway, and the whaler ‘Juno’ are the most important, while in the latter the large series of bore journals and mine plans give a clear view of the geological knowledge of central Scotland (particularly of the south of West Lothian) in the mid 19th century. Also included are miscellaneous early charters, several business account books, and the papers of Dr John Aitken FRS, the meteorologist. The general arrangement is as follows: 1. Bore journals of Henry Aitken of Darroch (ca.1860-80), numbered series: 1. Armadale and others, including Polkemmet, Bridgecastle, and Hilderston (with some discussion of the silver deposits there). At the end is an analysis of Boghead Parrot.

  • AJ Aitken a History of Scots
    A. J. Aitken A history of Scots (1985)1 Edited by Caroline Macafee Editor’s Introduction In his ‘Sources of the vocabulary of Older Scots’ (1954: n. 7; 2015), AJA had remarked on the distribution of Scandinavian loanwords in Scots, and deduced from this that the language had been influenced by population movements from the North of England. In his ‘History of Scots’ for the introduction to The Concise Scots Dictionary, he follows the historian Geoffrey Barrow (1980) in seeing Scots as descended primarily from the Anglo-Danish of the North of England, with only a marginal role for the Old English introduced earlier into the South-East of Scotland. AJA concludes with some suggestions for further reading: this section has been omitted, as it is now, naturally, out of date. For a much fuller and more detailed history up to 1700, incorporating much of AJA’s own work on the Older Scots period, the reader is referred to Macafee and †Aitken (2002). Two textual anthologies also offer historical treatments of the language: Görlach (2002) and, for Older Scots, Smith (2012). Corbett et al. eds. (2003) gives an accessible overview of the language, and a more detailed linguistic treatment can be found in Jones ed. (1997). How to cite this paper (adapt to the desired style): Aitken, A. J.

    PLANTS OF PEEBLESSHIRE (Vice-county 78) A CHECKLIST OF FLOWERING PLANTS AND FERNS David J McCosh 2012 Cover photograph: Sedum villosum, FJ Roberts Cover design: L Cranmer Copyright DJ McCosh Privately published DJ McCosh Holt Norfolk 2012 2 Neidpath Castle Its rocks and grassland are home to scarce plants 3 4 Contents Introduction 1 History of Plant Recording 1 Geographical Scope and Physical Features 2 Characteristics of the Flora 3 Sources referred to 5 Conventions, Initials and Abbreviations 6 Plant List 9 Index of Genera 101 5 Peeblesshire (v-c 78), showing main geographical features 6 Introduction This book summarises current knowledge about the distribution of wild flowers in Peeblesshire. It is largely the fruit of many pleasant hours of botanising by the author and a few others and as such reflects their particular interests. History of Plant Recording Peeblesshire is thinly populated and has had few resident botanists to record its flora. Also its upland terrain held little in the way of dramatic features or geology to attract outside botanists. Consequently the first list of the county’s flora with any pretension to completeness only became available in 1925 with the publication of the History of Peeblesshire (Eds, JW Buchan and H Paton). For this FRS Balfour and AB Jackson provided a chapter on the county’s flora which included a list of all the species known to occur. The first records were made by Dr A Pennecuik in 1715. He gave localities for 30 species and listed 8 others, most of which are still to be found. Thereafter for some 140 years the only evidence of interest is a few specimens in the national herbaria and scattered records in Lightfoot (1778), Watson (1837) and The New Statistical Account (1834-45).

  • The Tinto Parishes Parish Profile 2013
    The Tinto Parishes Cairngryffe Libberton and Quothquan Symington Parish Profile 2013 What we hope for in our new minister We look forward very much to welcoming a minister. We look forward too, to the gifts that that person will bring and which will enhance our Christian experience. Each congregation has well tried and well-loved practices and we would hope to share and expand these as well as exploring innovative approaches and styles of worship. We are conscious that many find change challenging and we hope that we can work together to address this. Our hope always is to further God’s work in our communities and constantly to maintain active outreach to all. Accordingly we seek a minister who will provide leadership and will identify with people of our churches and villages. That person we hope will recognise the talent, commitment and goodwill already present within our membership and help us to build further upon these. We would look for support for the congregations as they continue to make outreach to their individual communities. We have experienced limited response in the past but hope for pastoral leadership in continuing this work and attracting more (possibly younger) members with enthusiasm and energy. At all times we would hope to continue to maintain caring contact with those who require support and we see the minister as having a strong locus in this. We anticipate that the minister will encourage and support the office bearers in each congregation and be prepared to sustain existing delegated practice in areas such as visiting the elderly and housebound, organising worship through teams of members, conducting Praise and Prayer meetings.
