A watching brief was later carried out during site clearance and the excavation of building foundations. Four fragments of mortar-bonded sandstone walling were identified, but were thought to be of 19th-century date due to their association with material dating to that period and their inclusion on 19th-century OS maps. A full report has been lodged with the NMRS. Sponsor: Wilson Distributors (Scotland) Ltd. S Halliday 2000 NS 4272 3782 A programme of archaeological evaluation and excavation was undertaken during redevelopment. In the evaluation, ten hand-dug test pits were excavated within the standing buildings. Truncation was found to be severe across much of the frontage, although a deposit containing a sherd of 18th-century pottery was identified. A truncated feature was located beneath the frontage, and on the basis of three sherds of pottery is dated to the medieval period. To the rear of the frontage topsoil had been preserved but was contaminated with modern structural material. Wall foundations relating to outbuildings were encountered in several of the test pits. On the basis of the evaluation, around 300m2 of subsoil was cleaned and inspected following removal of a suspended timber floor within the standing building. A possible medieval feature and a well with a drystone lining were recorded. Later remains likely to date from the modern period were also excavated and recorded. Following demolition of the standing building, a concrete slab was removed from the rear of the development plot and six trenches, covering 20% of the site, were excavated. Another well with drystone lining was uncovered in the southernmost frontage plot. This was very similar in size and shape to the well uncovered during the initial excavation. Later remains likely to date from the 18th and 19th century were also excavated and recorded. Both wells were left in situ and are likely to be incorporated into the building development.

INTRODUCTION The title of Scottish, applied to the holy ones whose names occur in these short notices, must be understood to refer not so much to their nationality as to the field in which, they laboured or the localities where traces of their cultus are to be found. The Calendar here submitted does not pretend to be exhaustive; the saints therein noted are those who appear prominently in such records as remain to us and in the place-names which still recall their personalities. In this new edition much additional information has been inserted, and many emendations made to render the Calendar as complete as possible.

GLASGOW AND EDINBURGH WILLIAM HODGE & COMPANY 1900 FEINTED BY WILLIAM HODGE & CO. GLASGOW AND EDINBURGH TO THE ornCEES AND MBMBBES OF tbe Kostbery Burns €lub — : TO THE READER This volume contains the best of the early critical Reviews on Robert Burns. Many of these reviews are difficult to obtain at this date, and I feel confident that the student, as well as the lover of Burns, will appreciate the bringing of them together in this handy and accessible form. The first notice accorded to the poet is not included in the collection, as it contained little of a strictly critical character. It was printed in the Edinburgh Magazine for October, 1786, and opens with the query " Who are you, Mr. Burns ? Will some surly critic say at what university have you been educated? What languages do you understand? What authors have you particularly studied? Whether has Aristotle or Horace directed your taste? Who has praised your poems, and under whose patronage are they published? In short, what qualifications entitle you to instruct or entertain us?" To the questions of such a catechism, perhaps, honest Robert Burns would make no satisfactory answer.
  • Parishes and Congregations: Names No Longer in Use

    Parishes and Congregations: Names No Longer in Use

    S E C T I O N 9 A Parishes and Congregations: names no longer in use The following list updates and corrects the ‘Index of Discontinued Parish and Congregational Names’ in the previous online section of the Year Book. As before, it lists the parishes of the Church of Scotland and the congregations of the United Presbyterian Church (and its constituent denominations), the Free Church (1843–1900) and the United Free Church (1900–29) whose names have completely disappeared, largely as a consequence of union. This list is not intended to be ‘a comprehensive guide to readjustment in the Church of Scotland’. Its purpose is to assist those who are trying to identify the present-day successor of a former parish or congregation whose name is now wholly out of use and which can therefore no longer be easily traced. Where the former name has not disappeared completely, and the whereabouts of the former parish or congregation may therefore be easily established by reference to the name of some existing parish, the former name has not been included in this list. Present-day names, in the right-hand column of this list, may be found in the ‘Index of Parishes and Places’ near the end of the book. The following examples will illustrate some of the criteria used to determine whether a name should be included or not: • Where all the former congregations in a town have been united into one, as in the case of Melrose or Selkirk, the names of these former congregations have not been included; but in the case of towns with more than one congregation, such as Galashiels or Hawick, the names of the various constituent congregations are listed.

THE JAMESONS OF MAINE s. m. jameson | november 01, 2018 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report is to lay out my opinion based on my research of the Jamesons who arrived in New England in 1718, settling into Milton, Massachusetts and in Falmouth, Maine. By doing so, I am laying the foundation of a family thoroughly integrated with the Scots who arrived upon the colonial shores of North America with the thought that religious and personal freedoms were at the apex for emigration. DNA makes a strong case toward establishing their origins and toward straightening out the fabric of their history, a tapestry rich in heroism and suffering that can be applied to nearly all the Scot’s families that sought release from the political ineptitude of the European crowns, their repressive role in limiting intelligent thinking by others beneath the grand scale of royal self-opinionated and self-appointed elitism. As political systems fade, new ideas breached the old-world habits of the oligarchy1 and autocratic2 excesses to foment and spear-head progression toward new forms of governing. How many times do we as a people struggle with conservative liberalism3, possibly the first sign of innovative expressions; results which modestly attack the conservative idealisms of a changing nation. The Scot’s rejected the abusive, authoritative role of the current monarchy and forged ahead to build a political system that included their own doctrine. That movement fostered a “more perfect union” one which greatly influenced the thinking of former colonials into a nation greater than the sum of their parts.
