    IssueIssue No No 8 8 NEWSLETTERNEWSLETTER FriendFriendss ofof Perth Perth & & Kinross Kinross Council Council Archive Archive Honorary Presidents: Mike O’Malley, Provost of Perth && KinrossKinross CouncilCouncil and SirSir William MacphersonMacpherson ofof Cluny and BlairgowrieBlairgowrie James K Cairncross 1920-2002 We regret to inform you that one of our life members passed away recently. Mr Cairncross was well-known in Perth and much further afield as a partner, with his late brother Alistair, in the long-established firm of A&G Cairncross, jewellers. His connection with the Council Archive goes back to the old days in the Sandeman Library when he kindly deposited records relating to his father’s trust. Along with good friend Archie Martin, and sister-in-law Mary Cairncross he was quick to support the setting up of the Friends of Perth & Kinross Council Archive. We were also pleased recently to receive a generous contribution from his own charitable trust towards the cost of equipment for our volunteers. It is apparent from the appreciations of his life that have appeared in the local press and the warm tributes at his funeral that Mr Cairncross will be deeply missed by his many friends and also by various organisations within Perth. On behalf of the Friends, we would like to pass on our sympathy to his family. Steve Connelly, Archivist Welcome to our eighth Friends newsletter. It’s been a busy quarter for our members and volunteers. First, our visit to Kinross House was most interesting. Arriving at dusk, the sweep up the drive to the spotlighted house was quite breathtaking.

    Muthill in Bloom 2019

    Prepared by Muthill In Bloom for Beautiful Scotland 2019 Designed by Muthill Primary School, Muthill Muthill In Bloom 2019 Prepared by Muthill In Bloom for Beautiful Scotland 2019 Introduction To Muthill In Bloom Muthill in Bloom was formed in 1993 by a small group of enthusiastic volunteers with Lily Crawford and Margaret Melville at its helm, and now, more than a quarter of a century later, their vision continues to thrive. The aim of the group to “improve the appearance of the village” has helped create an environmentally friendly place to stay and visit… a desirable place to live and work. The group has progressed from back garden displays to the creation of eye catching floral displays, never afraid to try something different or use a “crazy” colour scheme. Throughout the summer months village displays are a lot of colour all maintained and watered by a very dedicated team, ensuring everything is in tip top condition . Support for this work is essential and fortunately we work with 27 other partners in and around the village allowing us to do what we do. Fundraising events throughout the year include coffee mornings, bingo tea, plant sales and Christmas post delivery service. Teaching a younger generation has now become a priority and helping our local primary school is very important. Last year we planted a “young ones” orchard with the help of every child in the village school and nursery and we look forward to watching this project progress and grow. This year we hope to support the school in their bid to win a 6th green eco flag.

    Here They Have Been Loosely Grouped to Assist General Browsing

    Perth and Kinross Remembers First World War resources in Perth and Kinross Archive This is a list of suggested resources from the Archive which might assist in any research related to the First World War. These resources are already available to browse as an online searchable database https://www.pkc.gov.uk/article/4655/World-War-One-sources Here they have been loosely grouped to assist general browsing. The headings are: people, if someone is part of a named collection; rolls of honour; albums, photographs, postcards and cartoons; women at war, if the records refer in any way to women’s war work; church; towns and villages, if places feature in the collection name and finally, organisations. This last group also includes Perth and Kinross Town council references. Some of the references feature twice if they are relevant to more than one group.
