  • David Duncan and His Descendants
    THE STORY OF THOMAS DUNCAN AND HIS SIX SONS BY KATHERINE DUNCAN SMITH (Mrs. J. Morgan Smith) NEW YORK TOBIAS A. WRIGHT, INc. PRINTERS AND PUBLISHERS 1928 FOREWORD ESEARCH in Duucan genealogy was begun in 1894 and has been R carried on industriously to this date through Court records, VVills, Deeds, Bible records and tombstone inscriptions which have furnished proof and have affixed the seal of authenticity to much of the recorded data. Interested kinspeople have contributed from their store of family traditions some of which have been found to agree with certain facts and may be considered true. Many letters have been received, principally from descendants of Daniel and Stephen Duncan, extracts of which appear in this history and are mute evidence of the interest the writers feel in their lineage and their desire to worthily live and teach their chil­ dren to hold to the standard set by their ancestors. That there are errors in this publication there can be no doubt, but not of my making for: "I cannot tell how the truth may be; I say the tale as 'twas said to me." (Sir Walter Scott.) The frequent appearance of my name and the very personal nature of this book is warranted, somewhat, by the fact that all along the thought has been it would be distributed, mainly, among the descendants of Daniel and Stephen Duncan, between whose families there is very close relationship because of the intermar­ riage of many cousins. The stretch of years between 1894 and 1928 is a long one and it is not possible for me to estimate the time I have given to my self-imposed task, but if this book shall meet with favor and be prized by those into whose hands it may fall, the hours, days and weeks devoted to The Story of Thom,,as Dun­ can and His Si.r Sons will be remembered by me as pastime.

  • The Ruthwell Cross
    05/09/2014 11:59 AM http://www.englandtree.com/photos/albums/grierson/ruthwell/cross.htm The Ruthwell Cross You are here: Photo Albums • GRIERSON • Ruthwell • The Ruthwell Cross Related Category: 1792 Statistical Account of Ruthwell The Early History of the Cross: The story of the Ruthwell Cross begins in the last quarter of the 7th century AD, in the period historians call the 'Dark Ages.' Civilisation, brought in the wake of the Roman Legions that had conquered Southern Britain had quickly disappeared after they had withdrawn in the 4th century and what we now know as the separate kingdoms of England and Scotland had not yet come into being. The area to the north of the Solway was a part of the Anglian Kingdom of Northumbria known as Bernicia. Missionaries from Lindisfarne and Iona would have passed through this area and the origins of this monument are credited to them. Some writers have gone as far as to attribute the work to missionaries under the authority of Colman, Bishop of Lindisfarne, in about the year 680 AD. The Synod of Whitby had decreed that the Celtic Church of Columba, which had come from Ireland and the west, should adopt the Roman rule that had come in through the south. Colman and a number other Columban churchmen did not agree with this. The Message of the Cross: The purpose of the Cross it totally consistent throughout. The remaining picture panels (there were probably fourteen originally) on the front and back broad face of the Cross and the Latin inscriptions tell the story of the Life and Passion of Christ.

He was responsible for surveying and rescuing the records of the savings bank movement in Scotland and England before flotation. In collaboration with Iain Russell, he was commissioned by Sir Nicholas Goodison, Chairman of the TSB, to write a history of the movement, which was published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson in 1994 as An Invaluable Treasure: A History of the TSB. In 2000 he published a history of Standard Life, the Edinburgh life assurance company, which had similar values to those of the savings bank movement. He is a member of the board of the National Archives of Scotland and of the Advisory Council on Records and Archives. Reverend Henry Duncan was born at Lochrutton, Kirkcudbrightshire, on 8 October 1774, the third son of the minister Reverend George Duncan. Lochrutton is about six miles south-west of Dumfries in south-west Scotland. In the late 18th century it had a population of some 550 people, who were engaged mostly in farming. Reverend George Duncan complained that the landowners showed no enthusiasm for Reverend Henry Duncan.

  • Speaking for Scotland's Buildings
    @theahss Speaking for Scotland’s Buildings Debbie Crosbie Chief Executive Officer TSB Scotland plc Henry Duncan House 118-124 George Street Edinburgh EH2 4LH By email: [email protected] 28 May 2021 Dear Debbie Crosbie Ruthwell Savings Bank Museum The proposal by the Trustee Savings Bank to close the museum dedicated to the foundation of the Savings Bank movement is an extremely distressing one for Dumfries and Galloway, and the Architectural Heritage Society of Scotland wishes to support David Mundell MP and Colin Smyth MSP in their plea to the TSB not to go ahead with this. This museum could not be more important to the history of the savings movement worldwide, but its significance also lies both in its very obvious humble beginnings and, particularly for the AHSS, in the authentic character and history of the building that houses it. This is a Category A Listed Building for its very real association with the foundation of Savings Banks and with their originator, the Reverend Henry Duncan, Minister of Ruthwell. As a part of his wider aims to educate his parishioners and assist them in improving their lives, Duncan transformed two semi-derelict eighteenth century cottages, one into a hall for the kind of local meetings and lectures he wished to encourage, and it was in this hall that he introduced his parishioners to the idea of the Savings Bank, while the adjoining cottage was transformed into the bank itself. You at the TSB of course know this already, but the AHSS feels that perhaps you do not fully understand the duty the bank owes to this relic of your humble beginnings.
