New Scottish Section in Iain Laird's Family History Project



I have put a new Scottish section into the site, including the Legend of Gathelus, Scota and the Stone of Destiny (how the Scots got their name and the Stone, and how they travelled from Greece to Egypt, Spain and Ireland and finally to Scotland); the Declaration of Arbroath, 1320, (the Statement of Scots Nationhood); the story of how the Thistle became the emblem of Scotland and on a lighter note "Wha's like us?", a review of the Scots' contributions to the world!  This latter includes a link to the "Old Pulteney" distillery, whose manager is Fred Sinclair.  What more encouragement do we need to make this the official Sinclair dram?
 
Yours aye
