Ruth R. Chin March 21, 1937 - July 18, 2018
PHONE: (972) 562-2601 Ruth R. Chin March 21, 1937 - July 18, 2018 Ruth R. (Gormley) Chin of Allen, Texas passed away on July 18, 2018 in Allen, Texas at the age of 81. She was born an only child as Robina Boyle Gormley (Namesake of her maternal Grandmother, Robina Boyle McGuire) on March 21, 1937 to Charles Joseph and Mary (McGuire) Gormley in Glasgow, Scotland. Ruth’s childhood home was The Morningside District of Edinburgh, Scotland. She attended St. Peter’s Primary School in Edinburgh, Holy Cross Academy also in Edinburgh and The Royal Academy of Music in London where she studied classical piano. Ruth was a member of the Dallas Chapter of the Daughters of the British Empire. She was a music teacher at Good Shepherd Catholic School in Garland, St. Phillip The Apostle Catholic School in Dallas and the Jewish Community Center in N. Virginia. Affectionately known as “Mumsie” within the family, we will always remember Ruth’s lovely countenance and her gift to make you feel special. She had a uniquely peaceful aura and was always a proper lady with perfect Continental table manners she learned from her Mother and in turn, passed them on to her children. Ruth had a very close relationship with her Dad. He encouraged her often to keep up with her music, tennis and netball; he pushed her to practice and develop skills and be competitive. He demanded excellence; she always had a strong desire to ‘win’ as a result. As a child, she enjoyed Highland Dancing and Scottish Country Dancing.

Highland Council Transport Programme Consultation Feedback Report
Highland Council Transport Programme Consultation Feedback Report Contents Page number Introduction 3 Inverness and Nairn 8 Easter Ross and Black Isle 31 Badenoch and Strathspey 51 Eilean a’ Cheo 64 Wester Ross and Lochalsh 81 Lochaber 94 Caithness 109 Section 1 Introduction Introduction The Council currently spends £15.003m on providing mainstream home to school, public and dial a bus transport across Highland. At a time of reducing budgets, the Council has agreed a target to reduce the budget spent on the provision of transport by 15%. The Transport Programme aims to consider the needs of communities across Highland in the preparation for re-tendering the current services offered. It is important to understand the needs and views of communities to ensure that the services provided in the future best meet the needs of communities within the budget available. The public engagement for the transport programme commenced Monday 26th October 2015 and over a 14-week period sought to obtain feedback from groups, individuals and transport providers. This consultation included local Member engagement, a series of 15 public meetings and a survey (paper and online). The feedback from this consultation will contribute to the process of developing a range of services/routes. The consultation survey document asked questions on: • How suitable the current bus services are – what works, what should change and the gaps • Is there anything that prevents or discourages the use of bus services • What type of bus service will be important in the future • What opportunities are there for saving by altering the current network Fifteen public meetings where held throughout Highland.

Caithness County Council
Caithness County Council RECORDS’ IDENTITY STATEMENT Reference number: CC Alternative reference number: Title: Caithness County Council Dates of creation: 1720-1975 Level of description: Fonds Extent: 10 bays of shelving Format: Mainly paper RECORDS’ CONTEXT Name of creators: Caithness County Council Administrative history: 1889-1930 County Councils were established under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889. They assumed the powers of the Commissioners of Supply, and of Parochial Boards, excluding those in Burghs, under the Public Health Acts. The County Councils also assumed the powers of the County Road Trusts, and as a consequence were obliged to appoint County Road Boards. Powers of the former Police Committees of the Commissioners were transferred to Standing Joint Committees, composed of County Councillors, Commissioners and the Sheriff of the county. They acted as the police committee of the counties - the executive bodies for the administration of police. The Act thus entrusted to the new County Councils most existing local government functions outwith the burghs except the poor law, education, mental health and licensing. Each county was divided into districts administered by a District Committee of County Councillors. Funded directly by the County Councils, the District Committees were responsible for roads, housing, water supply and public health. Nucleus: The Nuclear and Caithness Archive 1 Provision was also made for the creation of Special Districts to be responsible for the provision of services including water supply, drainage, lighting and scavenging. 1930-1975 The Local Government Act (Scotland) 1929 abolished the District Committees and Parish Councils and transferred their powers and duties to the County Councils and District Councils (see CC/6).

SCOTTISH GENEALOGIST CUMULATIVE INDEX 1953 - 2005 Compiled by Dr. James D. Floyd John & Margaret Kinnaird D. Richard Torrance and Other unidentified members of the Society Copyright The Scottish Genealogy Society 2007 The Scottish Genealogy Society Library & Family History Centre 15 Victoria Terrace Edinburgh EH1 2JL Tel: 0131 220 3677 http://www.scotsgenealogy.com SCOTTISH GENEALOGIST Index Volumes 1-52 1953-2005 INTRODUCTION Over the existence of the Scottish Genealogy Society indexes to the Scottish Genealogist have been published at regular intervals and distributed to those who were members of the Society at the time of publication. The index to the first 28 volumes was one large index with no sub-divisions. As a great number of queries were published it was decided to include these in a section of their own from volume 29 onwards. From volume 41 the index was split into the following sections: General index; Article Titles; Contributors; Reviews; Work in Progress; Queries. A separate section for Illustrations was included in the index for volumes 45-52. NUMBERING There has not been uniformity in the numbering format used by the different compilers of the indexes. A volume covers one year during which 4 journals were issued usually in March, June, September and December. In the current index these have been harmonised to follow the most commonly used pattern: Volume number - Roman numerals capitals Journal number - Roman numerals lower case Page number - Arabic numerals Example: XXXIX.iv.116 -Volume 39, December issue, page 116. Page numbering Page numbering in the journals has not been consistent over the years.

Wildcat Hybrid Scoring for Conservation Breeding Under the Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Plan
WILDCAT HYBRID SCORING FOR CONSERVATION BREEDING UNDER THE SCOTTISH WILDCAT CONSERVATION ACTION PLAN Dr Helen Senn, Dr Rob Ogden Wildcat Hybrid Scoring For Conservation Breeding under the Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Plan Dr. Helen Senn1, Dr. Rob Ogden Subjected to academic review and approved by Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Plan Steering Group May 2015 Citation: Senn HV and Ogden R, Wildcat Hybrid Scoring For Conservation Breeding under the Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Plan (2015), Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, May 2015 Cover image: Peter Cairns, northshots.com 1 Communicating author [email protected] 2 About Scottish Wildcat Action The Scottish wildcat is one of Europe's most elusive and endangered mammals. Often referred to as the ‘Tiger of the Highlands’, it is one animal whose image we recognise instantly. Striking, handsome and powerful, it is the very essence of a wild predator living by stealth and strength. We have come to the stage where urgent action is needed to save Scotland's remaining wildcats. We have given ourselves just six years to halt the decline. Scottish Wildcat Action is one of the most ambitious conservation projects ever undertaken in Scotland, with over 20 organisations, community groups and landowners coming together to tackle the decline of Scottish wildcats. The work is a key part of delivering the national Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Plan, and involves both in situ and ex situ conservation activities, including targeted effort in six priority areas, monitoring and surveying work, and a conservation breeding programme (based at RZSS Highland Wildlife Park in Kingussie). Project partners 3 Executive Summary 1.
