The story of the Historic Families of Ayrshire is one of «xceptional interest, as well from the personal as from the county, as here and there from the national, standpoint. As one traces it along the centuries he realises, what it is sometimes difficult to do in a general historical survey, what sort of men they were who carried on the succession of events, and obtains many a glimpse into their own character that reveals their individuality and their idiosyncracies, as well as the motives that actuated and that animated them.

  • An Old Family; Or, the Setons of Scotland and America
    [U AN OLD FAMILY OR The Setons of Scotland and America BY MONSIGNOR SETON (MEMBER OF THE NEW YORK HISTORICAL SOCIETY) NEW YORK BRENTANOS 1899 Copyright, 1899, by ROBERT SETON, D. D. TO A DEAR AND HONORED KINSMAN Sir BRUCE-MAXWELL SETON of Abercorn, Baronet THIS RECORD OF SCOTTISH ANCESTORS AND AMERICAN COUSINS IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR Preface. The glories of our blood and state Are shadows, not substantial things. —Shirley. Gibbon says in his Autobiography: "A lively desire of knowing and recording our ancestors so generally prevails that it must depend on the influence of some common principle in the minds of men"; and I am strongly persuaded that a long line of distinguished and patriotic forefathers usually engenders a poiseful self-respect which is neither pride nor arrogance, nor a bit of medievalism, nor a superstition of dead ages. It is founded on the words of Scripture : Take care of a good name ; for this shall continue with thee more than a thousand treasures precious and great (Ecclesiasticus xli. 15). There is no civilized people, whether living under republi- can or monarchical institutions, but has some kind of aristoc- racy. It may take the form of birth, ot intellect, or of wealth; but it is there. Of these manifestations of inequality among men, the noblest is that of Mind, the most romantic that of Blood, the meanest that of Money. Therefore, while a man may have a decent regard for his lineage, he should avoid what- ever implies a contempt for others not so well born.

  • Clan SEMPILL
    Clan SEMPILL ARMS Argent, a chevron chequy Gules and of the First between three hunting horns sable garnished and stringed of the Second CREST A stag’s head Argent attired with ten tynes Azure and collard with a prince’s crown Or MOTTO Keep tryst SUPPORTERS Two greyhounds Argent, collared Gules STANDARD The Arms in the hoist and of two tracts Gules and Argent, upon which is depicted three times the Crest, ensigned of a Baron’s coronet along with the Motto ‘Keep tryst’ in letters Gules upon two transverse bands Or A name known in Renfrewshire from the twelfth century, its origin is obscure. The suggestion that it is a corruption of ‘St Paul’ seem unlikely, as is the tradition that the 1st of the name had a reputation for being humble or simple. Robert de Sempill witnessed a charter to Paisley Abbey around 1246, and later, as chamberlain of Renfrew, a charter of the Earl of Lennox. His two sons, Robert and Thomas, supported Robert the Bruce, and both were rewarded by the king for their services. The elder son received all the lands around Largs in Ayrshire which had been confiscated from the Balliols. Thomas received a grant of half of the lands of Longniddry. The lands of Eliotstoun, which became the territorial designation of the chiefly line, were acquired prior to 1344. Sir Thomas Sempill of Eliotstoun fell at the Battle of Sauchiefurn fighting for James III in June 1488. His only son, John, succeeded to the family estates, and early in the reign of James IV – probably in 14188 – he was ennobled with the title, Lord Sempill.

    WITHOUT GOD Our week would be SINDAY MOURNDAY TEARSDAY WASTEDAY THIRSTDAY FIGHTDAY SHATTERDAY 7 DAYS WITHOUT GOD MAKES ONE WEAK!! FROM THE MANSE Dear Friends, Just a short note this edition of the newsletter as much of the past two weeks has either been in Fife or travelling back and forward to Fife. My Mum has just passed away after a long and courageous struggle with cancer. Thanks for all your kindness and support expressed at this time in so many ways. Your friend Stephen FROM THE EDITOR Summer is over and I am now back to reality. I trust that you had a good break and feel refreshed and looking forward to what the new session of all our organisations and groups have in store for us. It was good to see that Orders of Service, newsletters and magazines have been brought back from holiday. These will be displayed at the back of the Church once we resume worship in it. I am hoping that somebody out there who visited a church when on holiday would like to share their experience with us so as the ‘Churches Visited’ series can continue. As I’ve said before, this is your magazine and only what comes in can go out! The Winter magazine is scheduled to go out on Sunday 3rd December and all articles should reach me by Sunday 19th November. Alastair MacKinnon - Editor [email protected] KIRK SESSION REPORT I hope you had a good summer. We have not had a Session Meeting since the last edition of the church magazine so just a few updates on what was reported earlier.

  • Looking at Marie De Guise
    Looking at Marie de Guise https://journals.openedition.org/episteme/8092 Tout OpenEdition Revue de littérature et de civilisation (XVIe – XVIIIe siècles) 37 | 2020 Marie de Guise et les transferts culturels / Contingence et fictions de faits divers Marie de Guise and Cultural Transfers Looking at Marie de Guise Regards sur Marie de Guise S R https://doi.org/10.4000/episteme.8092 Résumés English Français This paper examines the symbolic value of the headdresses worn by French women at the Scottish court following the marriage of James V and Mary de Guise in 1538, using the Stirling Heads, portrait medallions from the Renaissance palace at Stirling Castle, as visual evidence. While several of the women are portrayed wearing a conventional French hood, others, including Marie de Guise, wear elaborately crafted “chafferons” which would have been made of gold wire. The chafferon is an unusual choice of headdress for a portrait and the reasons for this are considered with reference to the Petrarchan canon of ideal female beauty and how precious metal and shining hair merged into a single visual conceit. The royal accounts show that chafferons worn by the gentlewomen at the Scottish court were exceptional gifts made by the royal goldsmiths using Scottish gold from the king’s own mines, extracted with the assistance of miners sent by the Duke and Duchess of Guise. These chafferons, therefore, carried layers of meaning about the transformation of Scotland’s fortunes through dynastic marriage and the promise of a new Golden Age of peace and prosperity. Cet article, qui étudie la valeur symbolique des coiffes portées par les femmes françaises à la cour d’Écosse après le mariage de Jacques V et de Marie de Guise en 1538, utilise comme preuves matérielles des portraits gravés sur des médaillons de bois ornant le palais Renaissance du château de Stirling et connus sous le nom de Stirling Heads.
