  • The Parallel Roads of Glen Roy: in the Footsteps of Charles Darwin
    Geological Society of London, History of Geology Group THE PARALLEL ROADS OF GLEN ROY: IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF CHARLES DARWIN A FIELD GUIDE by Martin Rudwick Based on the Guide prepared for the field trip in Lochaber (Scotland), 26-29 June 2009, led by Martin Rudwick (University of Cambridge) and Adrian Palmer (Royal Holloway, University of London), to mark the bicentenary of the birth of Charles Darwin; and revised to make it usable by anyone wishing to follow our itinerary on their own. Darwin’s paper 1839: map of the “Roads” in Lochaber (the Roads were largely copied from Lauder’s paper [1821] but on a better base map). INTRODUCTION “I must premise once for all, that this minuteness of description, however superfluous it may at first sight appear, is absolutely required, as the circumstances thus dwelt on will be of essential use in investigating the cause of the appearances under discussion. It is by an attention to circumstances which at first glance appear trivial, that abstruse truths are often discovered.” John MacCulloch, “Parallel Roads”, 1817 Darwin’s paper 1839: View up Glen Roy from above “Viewpoint” with the three horizontal “Parallel Roads”, drawn from the lowest Road R3 (note its alignment on both sides of the valley). Darwin returned from the Beagle voyage identifying himself as a geologist, and was accepted as such by the leaders of the Geological Society in London. His papers to the Society interpreted what he had seen in terms of a global tectonic theory modelled on that of his older mentor Charles Lyell. The most substantial piece of fieldwork that Darwin undertook after his return was designed to strengthen this theory by harnessing in its support a well-known but extremely puzzling geological feature, the “Parallel Roads” in Glen Roy and adjacent valleys in the Lochaber region of the Scottish Highlands.

  • AN OLD HIGHLAND GENEALOGY and the EVOLUTION of a SCOTTISH CLAN Alan G
    AN OLD HIGHLAND GENEALOGY AND THE EVOLUTION OF A SCOTTISH CLAN Alan G. Macpherson A clan, in the original Gaelic sense of the term as used by Scottish Highlanders, is really an extended family, broadly based in the present in a great multitude of cousins, tapering to a few dimly‐seen ancestors some generations back. Clan history, therefore, is mainly a matter of genealogy, and when individual clansmen are active in the events of their time, and heritable property and personal status are at stake, the clan historian must turn genealogist. Nor can he separate the story of the people from the story of the land. It is for these reasons that the Invereshie Book Genealogy, the subject of this article, is so important for any understanding of the evolution of Clan Macpherson, one of a score of clans that dominated the history of the Scottish Highlands during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Scottish clans were territorially based, being predominantly pastoral in their way of life. As in other traditional societies their language reflected the great importance of blood relationships in a man's day‐to‐day life. The Gaelic language contained a special vocabulary to cover all events. In Gaelic a man's sloinneadh was his patronymic surname, which served to identify him among his fellows. Thus, among men of other clans a Macpherson was called Mac a' Phearsain, meaning a man of that group of people known to be descended from “the Parson”, or Mac Mhuirich, meaning one of the descendants of Muireach.[1] This reference back to a remote ancestor, however, was not particularly useful in social intercourse within the clan.

  • An Old Highland Parish Register
    Offprint from Scottish Studies Volume 11 1967 An Old Highland Parish Register Survivals of Clanship and Social Change in Laggan, Inverness‐shire, 1775‐1854I ALAN G. MACPHERSON In an earlier article the evolution of a Scottish clan was traced from its origins in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries to the year 1705 (Macpherson 1966 : I). The study showed that biological growth in numbers was accompanied by relatively compact territorial expansion, and that by the time that these progressive and related changes had begun to reach their geographical limits a high degree of endogamy prevailed within the clan. The clan was that which first appears in official records of the sixteenth century as the Clanpherson or Clan Macpherson; the district in which most of the territorial expansion occurred was the old Lordship of Badenoch, situated in the southeast part of the Shire of Inverness. In the present study attention is focused on the Parish of Laggan which forms the southwestern part of Badenoch, and an attempt is made to show how social patterns associated with the clan system, well established in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, survived in and adjusted to the vastly different circumstances of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The document from which the new data are drawn is the Register of Marriages and Baptisms in the Parish of Laggan for the period between 1775 and 1854. In the earlier study the data derived mainly from genealogical material and referred only to the numerically and territorially dominant clan in the district. Information, in fact, was generally lacking for all but the tacksmen families among the Macphersons.
