The Buzzards Bay-14 was designed by L.Francis Herreshoff in 1945 as a follow-on to the Herreshoff 12 1/2 designed by his father, N.G. Herreshoff.
These are beautiful, classic wooden boats. We usually build them with a fir or purpleheart stem and keel, mahogany transom (seen in this picture) and western red cedar planking. The boats are usually a two year project for us.
In this photograph, the hull has been completed, caulked and paid (caulking covered with a waterproof material). The hull is being sanded to a smooth curve. The gray paint over the white primer helps the students, like the generations of boatbuilders before them, to see the bumps and hollows in the hull so it can be smoothed out.
The Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding is located in Port Hadlock WA and is a private, accredited non-profit vocational school.
Our mission is to teach and preserve the fine art of wooden boatbuilding and traditional maritime crafts.

First of all some thank yous :)
To Maria at Beverley Wedgwood for the loan of the veil and the tiara, and to Kate for the wedding magazine (with a pretty cover:)
Last Wednesday was the 29th February. It was actually the date that made me want to start this photographic challenge for the year, you see I'm pretty obsessed with patterns and numbers (10/10/10) and I've always marveled at how we suddenly gain a whole day every 4 years.
I like how people born on this day get to only officially be a quarter of their actual age. And I like the tradition that on this magical day, women are able to turn the tables and propose to men.
I've always liked the idea of that, as if its totally out of the question the rest of the time.
So, that inspired this image. My hair wasn't playing today, so the pink wig makes its comeback!

Il Regno dei Cieli è in realtà sulla terra
di Chen Bo, Cina
La più grande aspirazione di noi credenti è riuscire a entrare nel Regno dei Cieli e godere dell’eterna beatitudine che il Signore ha concesso all’uomo. Ogni volta che sentivo un pastore dire in un sermone che il posto che il Signore preparerà per noi in futuro è nell’alto dei cieli, che ci saranno campi dorati e mura di giada, e gemme che brilleranno ovunque, che noi potremo mangiare il frutto dell’albero della vita e bere l’acqua del fiume della vita, che non ci saranno più dolore, lacrime o afflizione e tutti saremo liberi e liberati, provavo un moto incredibile di emozione e di gioia. Era un luogo a cui anelavo tantissimo, e la mia vita di duro lavoro e di sofferenza sulla terra mi lasciava svigorita nel cuore. E così andai in giro a predicare il Vangelo e mi adoperai con entusiasmo per il Signore; diffondevo il Vangelo e fondavo Chiese, e non mi fermavo mai a riprendere fiato, per quanto doloroso o difficile fosse. Soprattutto da quando ho saputo che siamo negli ultimi giorni e che il Signore sarebbe tornato presto per portarci tutti nella nostra casa celeste, ho lavorato e mi sono adoperata ancor più proattivamente.
Un giorno, mi recai a casa di mia sorella per sapere come stava nostra madre. Prima di andarmene, mia sorella mi diede un libro, raccomandandosi che lo leggessi con attenzione. Pensai tra me e me: “Il libro che mi ha dato mia sorella è di sicuro un’opera spirituale. Il caso vuole che il mio spirito si senta molto inaridito in questo momento; non ho la sensazione che il Signore sia con me, né mi sento illuminata dalla lettura della Bibbia. Al mio ritorno, dovrò leggere questo libro con attenzione. Forse mi darà qualcosa”. Dopo essere tornata a casa, aprii il libro, cominciai a leggere e, prima che me ne rendessi conto, venni risucchiata dalle sue parole. Più leggevo, più lo apprezzavo; più leggevo, più sentivo che c’era luce in quelle parole, che esse erano illuminate dallo Spirito Santo e che non era possibile che potessero essere pronunciate da una persona normale. Da quando ho letto quel libro, sono giunta a comprendere alcune verità che prima, leggendo la Bibbia, non capivo e nella mia mente sento chiarezza e gioia. Sono disposta a pregare per avvicinarmi al Signore e la mia fede si è rafforzata. La mia condizione spirituale è migliorata sempre più. Pensai: “Solo l’opera dello Spirito Santo può dare all’uomo fede e forza, provvedere al suo spirito e nutrirlo. Le parole di questo libro provengono certamente dallo Spirito Santo”. Di conseguenza, la mattina, la prima cosa che faccio quando mi sveglio è leggere questo libro.
Un giorno, aprii il libro e lessi il seguente passo: “Dio che entra nel riposo significa che Egli non compirà più il Proprio lavoro di salvezza dell’umanità. L’umanità che accede al riposo significa che l’intera umanità vivrà nella luce di Dio e sotto la Sua benedizione; non ci sarà alcuna corruzione di Satana, né verrà perpetrata alcuna ingiustizia. Gli uomini vivranno una normale esistenza sulla terra e Dio Si prenderà cura di loro” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Mi fermai in quel punto. Il mio cuore sussultò e pensai tra me e me: “In futuro l’uomo vivrà sulla terra? Il Signore Gesù non ha promesso che in futuro vivremo in cielo? Perché queste parole parlano dello stare sulla terra? Come potrebbe essere? Sto fraintendendo?” Quindi, rilessi attentamente il passo, e le parole affermavano davvero che in futuro l’uomo avrebbe vissuto sulla terra. Allora, cosa significa realmente ciò? Quello non bastava. Dovevo capire cosa, in effetti, significasse. Perciò, continuai a leggere: “Dio ha la destinazione propria di Dio e l’uomo quella propria dell’uomo. Durante il Suo riposo, Dio continuerà a guidare l’esistenza dell’intera umanità sulla terra. Nella luce di Dio, l’uomo renderà lode all’unico vero Dio in cielo. […] Quando l’umanità entra nel riposo, significa che l’uomo è divenuto autentica creazione; l’umanità venererà Dio dalla terra e condurrà una normale esistenza umana. Gli uomini non saranno più disobbedienti nei confronti di Dio né Gli resisteranno; essi faranno ritorno all’originaria vita di Adamo ed Eva” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Più leggevo, più mi sentivo confusa: “L’uomo adorerà Dio dalla terra? Come potrà avvenire? Nella Bibbia non si dice forse che ciò avrà luogo in cielo? Come potrebbe essere sulla terra?” Mi precipitai a prendere la mia Bibbia, aprendola su Giovanni 14:2-3, e lessi il punto in cui il Signore Gesù afferma: “Nella casa del Padre Mio ci sono molte dimore; se no, vi avrei detto forse che Io vado a prepararvi un luogo? Quando sarò andato e vi avrò preparato un luogo, tornerò e vi accoglierò presso di Me, affinché dove sono Io, siate anche voi”. Il Signore Gesù dice chiaramente che la Sua resurrezione e ascesa in cielo avevano lo scopo di preparare un posto per noi, affinché la nostra destinazione fosse in cielo. Questa è la promessa del Signore. Pensai tra me e me: “Ciò che questo libro sta dicendo è diverso da ciò che dice il Signore; quindi, non posso continuare a leggerlo”. Dopo aver chiuso il libro, mi ritrovai in uno stato mentale di grande confusione; non sapevo cosa fosse giusto e, quindi, pregai insistentemente il Signore: “Oh Signore, ti prego di guidarmi e di condurmi. Cosa dovrei fare? Dovrei leggere questo libro o no? Oh Signore, ti prego di illuminarmi e di guidarmi…” Dopo aver pregato, pensai a come, dopo aver letto quel libro, mi ero sentita più vicina nel mio rapporto con il Signore, più entusiasta della mia fede in Lui e che il mio spirito stava ricevendo nutrimento: “Se mettessi giù questo libro e smettessi di leggerlo, tornerei alla mia precedente condizione, quella in cui il mio spirito si sentiva inaridito”. Poiché quel libro mi dava moltissimo, poiché potevo essere certa che provenisse dallo Spirito Santo, che non potesse essere frainteso, dato che proveniva dallo Spirito Santo, sebbene quelle parole non fossero conformi alle mie concezioni, non dovevo rinunciarvi né esimermi dal leggerle per nessun motivo. Mentre ci pensavo su, decisi che avrei fatto meglio a continuare a leggere, prima di decidere.
Quindi, presi di nuovo in mano il libro e continuai a leggere: “Il luogo di riposo dell’uomo è sulla terra, mentre il luogo del riposo di Dio è in cielo. Mentre l’uomo venera Dio nel riposo, egli vivrà sulla terra, e mentre Dio guida quel che resta dell’umanità nel riposo, Egli la guiderà dal cielo, non dalla terra” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Continuai a rifletterci nella mia mente: “Questo passo ora dice che il luogo del riposo di Dio è in cielo e che, mentre l’uomo riposa, adorerà Dio sulla terra. Potrebbe darsi che il luogo di riposo dell’uomo sia sulla terra, come affermano queste parole? È impossibile! Il Signore Gesù ha già affermato che noi saremo ovunque si trovi il Signore e il Signore Gesù venne resuscitato e ascese in cielo, per cui anche noi ascenderemo sicuramente in cielo!” Pensai agli anni passati, a quante strade che avevo percorso per il Signore, a quante sofferenze avevo sopportato. Non era stato forse allo scopo di ascendere al cielo e non dover più sopportare le sofferenze sulla terra? Se è davvero come afferma quel libro, ovvero che in futuro l’uomo continuerà a vivere sulla terra, allora le mie speranze non verranno forse vanificate? Rimasi distesa sul letto, come paralizzata. Mi sentivo debole dalla testa ai piedi. Più pensavo alla cosa, più non riuscivo a calmarmi. Perciò, per trovare una soluzione, mi precipitai a casa di mia sorella.
Quando arrivai a casa di mia sorella, trovai una donna di mezza età e, quando mia sorella ci presentò, venni a sapere che si trattava di sorella Li. Dopo poco, parlai con loro dei miei pensieri successivi alla lettura di quel libro. Dopo aver ascoltato, sorella Li si rivolse a me, dicendo: “Sorella, tutti coloro che, tra noi, credono nel Signore pensano che il Signore Gesù abbia promesso di preparare un posto per l’uomo e che, ovunque Egli Si trovi, ci chiederà di andare lì. Il Signore è asceso al cielo; quindi, in futuro, quando il Signore tornerà, certamente ci accoglierà in cielo affinché viviamo insieme a Lui. Ma qualcuno di noi si è chiesto se questo tipo di fantasia e ragionamento sia attendibile? Se fosse come ce lo immaginiamo, cioè che il Signore verrà e ci porterà in cielo, le parole della preghiera al Signore ‘Venga il tuo regno; sia fatta la tua volontà, come in cielo, anche in terra’ (Matteo 6:10) e la profezia nell’Apocalisse ‘Ecco il tabernacolo di Dio con gli uomini! Egli abiterà con loro, essi saranno suoi popoli e Dio stesso sarà con loro e sarà il loro Dio’ (Apocalisse 21:3) non verrebbero forse vanificate? Come potrebbero queste cose svolgersi come predetto? Se la destinazione finale che Dio ci assegna fosse in cielo, quando Egli creò in origine l’uomo, che senso aveva farci vivere sulla terra?” Non ero affatto convinta e replicai: “Nonostante questi testi sacri affermino tali cose, il Signore Gesù Stesso disse: ‘Io vado a prepararvi un luogo; e quando sarò andato e v’avrò preparato un luogo, tornerò, e v’accoglierò presso di Me, affinché dove son Io, siate anche voi’ (Giovanni 14:2-3). Dopo essere risorto, il Signore Gesù ascese al cielo ed è qui che Egli dice che andrà a preparare un posto per noi. Egli afferma che, ovunque Si trovi, anche noi potremmo stare. Perciò, questo prova che Dio ci promise che saremmo ascesi al cielo per ottenere la vita eterna, e non che avremmo ottenuto la vita eterna sulla terra. Questa è una cosa che nessuno può negare!” Sorella Li continuò a parlare pazientemente: “Sorella, è vero che il Signore sta preparando un posto per coloro che credono in Lui, ma tale posto si trova di fatto sulla terra o in cielo? Il Signore non dice così nelle Sue parole; quindi, su cosa ci basiamo quando affermiamo che il posto che Egli sta preparando per noi è in cielo? Si tratta di fatto della promessa del Signore o della nostra personale concezione e fantasia? Per coloro tra noi che credono in Dio, tutte le cose dovrebbero basarsi sulla parola del Signore; le nostre personali concezioni e fantasie non andrebbero mescolate alla parola del Signore, per poi dire che si tratta del significato del Signore. Ciò non equivale forse a fare affidamento sulle nostre idee per spiegare la parola del Signore? Non significa forse distorcere la parola del Signore? Quindi, non possiamo fare affidamento sulle fantasie che abbiamo in testa, sui nostri pensieri e sulle nostre preferenze per spiegare la parola del Signore. Se così fosse, commetteremmo un errore. Nella Genesi 2:7-8 si afferma: ‘E Jahvè Dio formò l’uomo dalla polvere della terra, gli soffiò nelle narici un alito vitale, e l’uomo divenne un’anima vivente. E Jahvè Dio piantò un giardino in Eden, in oriente, e quivi pose l’uomo che aveva formato’. È evidente che al principio Dio creò l’uomo sulla terra e che, prima di crearlo, creò tutte le cose, per preparare un ambiente adatto alla vita dell’uomo. Quindi, possiamo constatare che è volontà di Dio farci vivere sulla terra. Inoltre, nel ‘Padre nostro’, Egli ci fa pregare Dio affinché il Suo Regno venga in terra. Nel Libro dell’Apocalisse è profetizzato: ‘Il regno del mondo è passato al nostro Signore e al Suo Cristo ed egli regnerà nei secoli dei secoli’ (Apocalisse 11:15). ‘Il tabernacolo di Dio con gli uomini! Egli abiterà con loro’ (Apocalisse 21:3). Da queste righe della Scrittura e della profezia possiamo constatare che il posto che Dio sta preparando per noi è sulla terra e non in cielo, e che la nostra futura destinazione finale è in terra, e non in cielo…”. La spiegazione di sorella Li andava completamente contro le mie concezioni. Semplicemente, non ascoltavo ciò che diceva. Mi alzai in piedi e le dissi con rabbia: “Smettila di parlare! Per anni, ho corso, mi sono spesa e ho sofferto per il Signore, per poter ascendere al cielo! Ho aspettato con impazienza per tutto il tempo che il Signore mi riportasse nella dimora dei cieli, così da non dover più patire in terra. Tu dici che la nostra destinazione finale è in terra. Non posso accettarlo”. Dopo aver detto questo, mi voltai per andarmene. La mia sorella minore si precipitò, cercando di parlarmi: “Sorellina, come puoi essere così testarda? Il punto di vista cui ti aggrappi è corretto? Il Signore dice: ‘Io vado a prepararvi un luogo’. Tu non conosci il vero significato di queste parole e stai mantenendo le tue personali opinioni. Non è da sciocchi? Questo non è il genere di atteggiamento che le persone che cercano la verità dovrebbero avere! Il Signore Gesù che stiamo aspettando è già ritornato: Dio Onnipotente è il ritorno del Signore Gesù! Quel libro che ti diedi da leggere contiene le espressioni personali e le parole di Dio! Il Signore che abbiamo aspettato ogni giorno, affinché ci venisse a prendere, ora è tornato. Dobbiamo ascoltare con attenzione. Non dobbiamo assolutamente lasciarci sfuggire questa rarissima opportunità!”
Ero stupefatta nel sentire mia sorella pronunciare quelle parole. Non riuscivo a credere a quello che avevo appena sentito: “Il Signore è tornato? È vero?” Quindi mia sorella disse: “Non eri tu, prima, che dicevi che le parole di quel libro provengono dallo Spirito Santo? Quando lo leggevi, sentivi di aver ricevuto moltissimo, di aver avuto l’opera dello Spirito Santo e che il tuo rapporto con Dio era diventato più stretto. Ora pensa a questa cosa: oltre alla parola del Signore, chi altri parla in modo tale da sortire un effetto del genere? Ora il Signore è tornato per operare e per pronunciare nuove parole e noi possiamo godere della dolcezza delle parole di Dio. Se non cerchiamo né esaminiamo, se ci limitiamo ad aggrapparci alle nostre concezioni e fantasie, nonché al significato letterale della Bibbia, senza lasciarci andare, allora alla fine ci rovineremo. Ai loro tempi, i farisei con una buona conoscenza della Bibbia si aggrappavano alle parole di quest’ultima: non cercavano affatto di domandarsi se la loro comprensione della Bibbia fosse corretta o se fosse conforme alla volontà di Dio, o meno. Al contrario, pensavano che un uomo che non si chiamava Messia non fosse il Salvatore che sarebbe venuto; semplicemente, non esaminavano se la via del Signore Gesù potesse offrire la vita all’uomo e mostrargli un sentiero per fare pratica. Si limitavano ad aggrapparsi ostinatamente alle loro concezioni e fantasie e rifiutavano ciecamente la salvezza del Signore Gesù, commettendo infine il crimine odioso di inchiodare il Signore alla croce. Non possiamo seguire le orme dei farisei e percorrere il loro sentiero di opposizione a Dio!” Dopo aver ascoltato le parole di mia sorella, pensai tra me e me: “Ciò che mia sorella sta dicendo è ragionevole. La parola del Signore è l’unica soluzione, quando lo spirito di un uomo è inaridito”. Ripensai a come la condizione del mio spirito sia andata via via migliorando da quando leggo le parole di quel libro, a come esso mi abbia donato la fede in Dio e a come mi faccia sentire che Dio è in mia presenza. “Sento persino di comprendere alcune verità. Potrebbe darsi che le parole di quel libro siano davvero il Signore che torna a parlare? Il ritorno del Signore è un’occasione importante. Farei meglio a non rifiutare e giudicare alla cieca; devo sforzarmi di esaminare e cercare, non posso essere come quei farisei che non cercavano la verità, che si aggrappavano alle loro concezioni in opposizione a Dio!” In quel momento mi sentii piacevolmente sorpresa e spaventata allo stesso tempo. Ero piacevolmente sorpresa perché credevo nel Signore e attendevo ansiosamente che Egli tornasse per accettarmi nel Regno dei Cieli, dove potevo vivere libera dalle preoccupazioni, senza più dover affrontare difficoltà in terra, e oggi apprendevo la notizia del ritorno del Signore. Questa è davvero una grandissima e gioiosa opportunità. Ero spaventata perché, se Dio Onnipotente è il Signore ritornato, allora il mio sogno di attendere che il Signore mi accetti nel Regno dei Cieli verrebbe infranto… In cuor mio sentivo emozioni contrastanti di ogni genere; non sapevo cosa provavo. Mi sentivo impotente. Tutto quello che potevo fare era rivolgermi al Signore in preghiera: “Oh Signore! Ho aspettato con ansia ogni giorno che Tu mi portassi nella Tua dimora celeste, ma dicono che il posto che hai preparato per la mia destinazione finale sia qui sulla terra. Sono davvero incapace di affrontare questa realtà. Non voglio davvero sperimentare questo genere di difficoltà sulla terra. Oh Signore! Sento un grande dolore in questo momento in cuor mio: ti prego di aiutarmi e di guidarmi nel sentiero innanzi a me”. Dopo aver pregato, pensai alle parole del Signore Gesù, quando Egli afferma: “Beati i poveri in spirito, perché di loro è il Regno dei Cieli” (Matteo 5:3). È vero! Il Signore apprezza e permette l’ingresso nel Regno dei Cieli soltanto a coloro che sono poveri di spirito e che cercano la verità. Io dovrei essere una persona povera di spirito. Solo ascoltando attentamente la loro spiegazione mi conformerò alla volontà del Signore.
In quel momento sorella Li disse: “Il Signore ha detto: ‘Beati i puri di cuore, perché vedranno Dio’ (Matteo 5:8). Mentre accogliamo il ritorno del Signore, dobbiamo ascoltare la Sua parola e agire come persone pure di cuore. Sebbene l’opera che Dio svolge oggi non si conformi alle nostre concezioni e fantasie, tutto ciò che Dio fa è bene, tutto è a vantaggio dell’uomo e in mezzo a tutto vi è la volontà di Dio, dove la verità può essere cercata. Se non lo capiamo perfettamente, dobbiamo per prima cosa farci da parte e sforzarci di cercare la verità, in modo da poter ricevere l’illuminazione di Dio e comprendere la Sua volontà. Sorella, apri il tuo cuore e parla delle cose che ancora non comprendi, e potremo cercare insieme incontrandoci e parlandone”. Sentivo che ciò che sorella Li aveva detto era sensato; dovevo calmarmi e cercare; quindi dissi: “Sorella, c’è una cosa che non comprendo: perché la nostra destinazione finale non è in cielo, ma è qui in terra?” Sorella Li trovò Giovanni 3:13: “Nessuno è salito in cielo, se non colui che è disceso dal cielo: il Figlio dell’uomo” e Isaia 66:1 “Il cielo è il Mio trono e la terra è lo sgabello dei Miei piedi” e mi diede questi due passi da leggere. Quindi ne spiegò il significato. Grazie alla spiegazione della sorella, nella mia mente sentivo che era tutto improvvisamente chiaro. Anch’io conoscevo quei passi delle Scritture; allora, perché non vi avevo mai riflettuto prima? Il Signore dice chiaramente che, a eccezione del Figlio dell’uomo che scese dal cielo, nessun uomo può ascendere al cielo, poiché il cielo è il trono di Dio e la terra il Suo poggiapiedi; quindi, come potrebbe l’uomo meritare di ascendere al cielo? Dio creò l’uomo sulla terra e fece in modo che vivesse lì. Dal giorno in cui Dio creò l’uomo, l’uomo ha abitato la terra generazione dopo generazione, aumentando gradualmente di numero. Tutta l’opera che Dio ha svolto per salvare l’uomo ha avuto luogo anch’essa in terra. Si trattava di qualcosa che Dio aveva prestabilito da molto tempo. È un qualcosa che nessuno può cambiare. La sorella tenne poi una condivisione sulla Bibbia, su come il Signore ha detto che avrebbe preparato un posto per noi. Ci spiegò che ciò si riferiva alla manifestazione e all’opera del Dio incarnato sulla terra negli ultimi giorni, e che Egli aveva predestinato che noi saremmo nati negli ultimi giorni, che avremmo sentito la voce di Dio, saremmo stati portati dinanzi al trono di Dio, avremmo accettato il giudizio e la purificazione di Dio degli ultimi giorni, e alla fine saremmo stati condotti nel Regno di Dio. Questo è il vero significato delle parole “dove sono Io, siate anche voi” (Giovanni 14:3). Sembra che il Regno di Dio sia in realtà in terra e che la destinazione finale dell’umanità sia sulla terra e non in cielo! Avevo vissuto tutto il tempo all’interno delle mie personali concezioni e fantasie; stabilii che Dio sarebbe ritornato per portarmi a vivere in cielo, ma ciò non è affatto conforme alla volontà del Signore; ciò non è conforme ai fatti! Tuttavia, non ero comunque ancora pronta a vivere questo genere di vita sulla terra, dove ero afflitta da Satana. Così, poco dopo, spiegai i pensieri che avevo in testa a sorella Li.
Dopo avermi ascoltata, sorella Li aprì il libro “La Parola appare nella carne”, e mi lesse un passo tratto dalla parola di Dio Onnipotente: “La vita nel riposo è una vita senza guerra, senza lordura, senza il persistere dell’ingiustizia. Ciò significa che manca del tormento di Satana (qui ‘Satana’ si riferisce alle forze ostili), della corruzione di Satana, così come dell’invasione di qualsiasi forza che si opponga a Dio. Ogni cosa procede secondo la propria natura e rende lode al Signore della creazione. Cielo e terra sono totalmente tranquilli. Questa è la vita dell’umanità nel riposo. […] Dopo che Dio e l’uomo saranno entrati nel riposo, Satana non esisterà più e, come Satana, così pure i malvagi non esisteranno più. Prima che Dio e l’uomo entrino nel riposo, i malvagi che un tempo perseguitarono Dio sulla terra e i nemici che Gli disobbedirono sulla terra saranno già stati distrutti; saranno stati distrutti dai grandi cataclismi degli ultimi giorni. Dopo che quei malvagi individui saranno stati completamente distrutti, la terra non conoscerà mai più il tormento di Satana. L’umanità otterrà completa salvezza e solo allora l’opera di Dio avrà termine definitivamente. Questi sono i prerequisiti perché Dio e l’uomo entrino nel riposo” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”).
Attraverso la lettura delle parole di Dio Onnipotente giunsi a comprendere che, nonostante in futuro le nostre vite saranno ancora sulla terra, quando Dio completerà la Sua fase finale dell’opera di salvezza dell’umanità, Satana verrà distrutto e le nostre vite sulla terra non verranno più minacciate da Satana, né noi avremo preoccupazioni o faticheremo, verseremo lacrime o sospireremo. Sarà esattamente come quando Adamo ed Eva vivevano nel Giardino dell’Eden. Saremo liberi di adorare Dio, vivendo una vita lieta e benedetta in cui Dio è con l’uomo. Questa è la destinazione finale dell’umanità e questa è l’ultima cosa che Dio realizzerà nella Sua opera degli ultimi giorni. È davvero straordinario! Proprio in quell’istante tirai un sospiro di sollievo: “Chi potrebbe parlare della destinazione finale dell’umanità con una tale chiarezza? Chi potrebbe pianificare la fine dell’umanità? Solo Dio potrebbe farlo!” All’interno della parola di Dio Onnipotente riconobbi la voce di Dio e capii che l’opera di Dio Onnipotente è Dio che appare per operare! Mi ero finalmente sbarazzata delle concezioni nella mia mente e accettai con gioia l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni, ritornando innanzi al trono di Dio.

CHUJA ISLAND FESTIVAL: AN EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE
www.jejuweekly.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=1857
As I drove to the Jeju ferry terminal at 6 am on Saturday morning, one of the best sun rises I have ever seen began to develop above me. Incredible swirls of cloud reflected the brilliant yellow and orange colors of the sky. It was an amazing scene. Unfortunately it was the last sunshine I would see that day. An hour later I was on a ferry bound for Chuja Island and the Yellow Corvina Fish Festival, menacing storm clouds hanging overhead.
Rough seas bounced the ferry (and my stomach) up and down as high winds and sheets of rain hammered the windows. It wasn't much better when I arrived at the island an hour later. Rain was still falling and the festival booths sat empty. By 12 pm I was ready to return to Jeju. But, just as I was about to give up, there was a break in the weather and the festival resumed.
Within minutes of the rain stopping, several local men and women sat down near the pier and began to make nets for the crowd of people that had quickly gathered around them. The women were particularly fascinating as they wrapped colorful string around ropes and nets with jaw-dropping speed. Net making is a popular job among the women of Chuja as they can earn between 50-70,000 won per day.
The nets are designed specifically to catch Yellow Corvina, a species of fish once plentiful all over the southern waters of Korea but now mainly limited to the area around Chuja. Each 24 meter net is tied together to form one long 16 km net. The massive net is spread out over 650 meters of water near the island and, weighted down by circular stone blocks, allowed to sink into the sea. Then the fisherman wait for the tide to come in. Over the next few hours, the fish, unable to see the thin white fibres of the net, get trapped inside as the current brings them closer to shore.
A few meters away a woman demonstrated to a throng of visitors how to properly tie several Yellow Corvina together so that the fish dry properly. Deftly moving her hands back and forth, she expertly braided a pair of ropes around a bunch of fish. A man beside her proudly held them up in the air as I took a photo, an iconic image of Chuja Island and a symbol of its economy.
Later that afternoon, as I was preparing to leave the island and as the rain began to fall again, a large pool was filled with fish and dozens of people, young and old, jumped into the water to to try to catch them with their bare hands. It was quite the sight and the blur of motion a symbol of the turbulent weather we've had in Korea this summer.

Catedral de El Burgo de Osma
www.lafronteradelduero.com/Paginas/el_burgo_de_osma.html
La Catedral de El Burgo de Osma, bajo la advocación de Santa María de la Asunción, es el resultado de una sucesión secular de actuaciones constructivas que van desde los primeros años del siglo XII, cuando se levantó el primitivo templo románico, hasta la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII en que se dio remate a la torre barroca. Aunque conserva escasos elementos de la obra románica y luce añadidos renacentistas, barrocos y neoclásicos, lo que predomina en el conjunto catedralicio son las construcciones góticas llevadas a cabo en diversos periodos.
La Catedral burguense fue declarada Monumento Nacional el 3 de junio de 1931, y «entorno de protección» por Decreto 84/99, de 22 de abril, de la Comunidad de Castilla y León. Comparte la sede episcopal desde 1959 con la concatedral de San Pedro de Soria.
Apunte histórico
Osma es sede episcopal al menos desde 597, fecha en la que está documentado que su obispo, Juan, tomó parte en el Concilio doce de Recaredo. De esta época visigoda no se conserva vestigio arqueológico alguno referido al templo catedralicio que se ubicaría en la antigua Uxama. Tras el lapso de tres siglos de ocupación musulmana (s.VIII al X) y otro más de repoblación y consolidación del dominio cristiano, en 1101 se restauró la diócesis bajo los auspicios de la Sede Metropolitana de Toledo. En esa fecha tomó posesión de la silla episcopal el que fue su primer titular en esta segunda y definitiva era diocesana: Pedro de Bourges (San Pedro de Osma).
Por entonces, no sólo se había abandonado la antigua Úxama, emplazada ahora en el llano con el topónimo de Osma, sino que se estaba desarrollando un burgo o barrio al otro lado del río Ucero en el que existía una iglesia benedictina con culto a San Miguel. Ese fue el lugar elegido para levantar la nueva catedral en el estilo arquitectónico imperante en los albores del siglo XII: el románico. No hay noticia cierta de cuándo se comenzó la construcción de este templo pero es de presumir que fuese durante el episcopado de Pedro de Osma, es decir, entre los años 1101 y 1109. En todo caso, los rasgos estilísticos de lo poco que de él ha quedado no dejan lugar a duda de que proceden de principios de dicho siglo. Los obispos sucesores de Pedro que regirían la diócesis a lo largo de la primera mitad del siglo XII -Raimundo, Beltrán y Esteban- debieron ser los continuadores de la obra y quienes la llevaron a término, pues parece que quedó concluida a mediados de siglo.
Corta vida le esperaba a la flamante catedral. En 1231 accedió a la sede episcopal oxomense Juan Díaz de Medina (a quien se nombra con frecuencia como Juan Domínguez), Canciller de Fernando III el Santo. Este prelado, que provenía de la Colegiata de Santa María la Mayor de Valladolid de la que fue abad en los años anteriores (1219-1230) y que él mismo había reconstruido por entero, debió entender que la prematuramente obsoleta iglesia románica no poseía las dimensiones ni la funcionalidad que los nuevos tiempos demandaban y, experimentado como era en la construcción de grandes templos, decidió en 1232, y así lo puso en práctica, derribar la «vieja» catedral y erigir otra ajustada a los cánones góticos, al modo como se estaba haciendo en Burgos, en Cuenca o en Toledo. No obstante, la piqueta demoledora respetó el claustro y la sala capitular.
Las obras del templo gótico se prolongaron durante más de un siglo, siendo el obispo Bernabé quien a mediados del XIV logró darles fin. El resultado fue una iglesia de planta de cruz latina con tres naves de cinco tramos, transepto de cuatro tramos además del crucero, presbiterio de dos tramos, ábside principal y cuatro capillas absidales, dos a cada lado, sobre el muro oriental del transepto de forma parecida a las del monasterio cisterciense de Santa María de Huerta. El conjunto gótico se completó a principios del siglo XVI con la sustitución del claustro románico por el actual gótico tardío adosado al muro de la nave septentrional. El derribo del primero se llevó a cabo en 1505; de él se salvaron algunos capiteles y la arquería del frente de la sala capitular. Algunos años después, durante el mandato del obispo Pedro Álvarez de Acosta (1550-1554), se realizó el retablo mayor, obra de Juan de Juani y Juan Picardo.
El siglo XVIII fue pródigo en obras y reformas. En 1767 se finalizó la torre en su tercer intento, pues dos anteriores habían fracasado por derrumbe. La cabecera de la iglesia sufrió importantes alteraciones, primero por la construcción de la girola y de la capilla mayor, y luego por la incorporación de la sacristía y la capilla del venerable Palafox. La reforma de la capilla mayor se debió a Juan de Villanueva, lo mismo que la construcción de la sacristía (1770) y el proyecto de la capilla de Palafox (1772), si bien la ejecución de esta última obra le cupo a Sabatinni entre los años 1778 y 1783.

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Since 2001 we have been trying to find Digiscope solutions, from the perfect camera, adapters, lenses, eyepieces, scopes and mounting systems. Now we have great camera, lenses, eyepieces Super Scopes and mounting systems. To my way of thinking Adapters have always been a challenge and the weakest link in Digiscoping. The Manufactures of the adapters have been camera brand specific, over engineered, or have depended on the filter threads of a camera or camera lens to support totally the weight of the camera. No Good, I promise that no lens manufacture would recommend that. Referring to the term “over engineered” I am referring to adapters like the swing models. Personally I believe that they lack support for the camera and seem to be easily damaged while in the field. The new ATX/STX Swarovski seems to have corrected the major concern of camera support, not depending of the filter threads to support the camera system unlike the DCA or the DA-10 from Kowa what I currently use. I have broken in half 4 lenses in the past years using those systems before I tried Support Brackets like the TSN-DA3. Support brackets are great; the scope, eyepiece, adapter and camera are now one secure solid piece if one can remember to lock everything down. I have to confess that due to my negligence of not checking to see if everything was tightened I have send a Scope in for repair and ruined an expensive DSLR when it smashed on the asphalt road. Weight is another issue. The Kowa TSN-DA3 Digiscope Support Bracket weighs 2.58 pounds. The one I own went to a machine shop and all none structural Aluminum was milled away cutting the weight to just over 2 pounds. Some of my days in the field carry me 8 or more miles walking. So like a back packer every pound counts. Up until now the TSN-DA3 was very important to keep my kit functioning and secure. So I carried that 2 + additional pounds.
At the Space Coast Festival two different people showed me a new Adapter. Angie “just a birder” bought one she is excited and bragging about hers. It was of high quality machined Aluminum that will work with 4/3 camera as well as some DSLR and P&S cameras. A minor sleeve change (inner ring) and it will adapt to any spotting scope eyepiece. It is not expensive and best of all the weight of the camera stresses the scope not the filter threads of the lens. There for a support bracket is not necessary, cutting my carry weight 2+ pounds. I ordered one.
Yesterday I received my Digidapter. I watched the video on www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVGfQTd8UPQl for quick assembly instructions. I inspected it for deficits like over engineering or a key feature not considered. I could not any faults. It was designed for quality, for the speed and smoothness in mounting the camera on a scope coming back to same position each time without adjustment or alignment.
•The fasteners are of the highest quality, brass and stainless.
•The screw design for mounting the camera in the tripod mount is superior.
•The brass stop screws on the mounting plate are designed for finger tightening, no fear of stripping the brass parts from over tightening. The camera comes back to the same spot every time.
•The elevation plate has milled slots so only the provided Allen key is necessary to lock the camera in place.
•The camera does not have to be removed from the Digidapter to replace batteries and flash cards. .
• Coupling the camera to the eyepiece is a breeze. Close tolerance machining and the highest quality anodizing is why it is smooth and easy.
•To change from one scope manufacture to another or if the eyepiece is different in size all that is needed is a different inner ring, all of the other parts will remain the same. This means for those scope owners that would like a functional adapter for a Pentax, Celestron, Vortex or Vanguard scope it is now available at a reasonable price.
•Overall, it is solid and functional, easy to use, returns to the same position with each mounting. No binding, pieces glide together, no effort. Precision and effortless in use, protecting the camera and eyepiece from stress damage. No adapter that I have seen mounts the camera and has it ready to shoot faster, safer and with more precision.
•The Digidapter is the best I have seen.
The big question at the Space Coast Festival was would the new 20mm f/1.7 ll ASPH Lumix lens works with this adapter. That lens is short like a Pancake lens but it is about 2 inches in diameter. I phoned my order to Paul Sayegh the owner and designer of the Digidapter. We spent hours on the phone discussing the 4/3s and some of the unique lenses that this system is creating. I had the lens in hand with a pair of dial calipers. I measured and re-measured the key points of the lens and measurement in relation to the camera. I took and then emailed to Paul the photos of the GX 7 and lens and added the measurement to the photos. After receiving the photos we talked again and at Paul’s request I re-measured everything once more. In three days I received my Digidapter and it was perfect.
Paul is an engineer, a designer, a communicator and a great machinist with an advanced knowledge of stress and tolerances. Paul is a big lens photographer that found Digiscoping and knows the importance of Digiscoping as a tool in photography. Digidapter and Paul Sayegh deserve our support.

Le procédé dit de coffrage glissant est illustré sur le chantier des tours Pablo Picasso à Nanterre. Le principe est de s'affranchir des échafaudages : le coffrage épouse le contour du bâtiment, il s'élève avec la construction et permet de réaliser simultanément l'ensemble des murs verticaux. Au centre du plancher de travail, une grue distribue en continu le ferraillage et le béton.

Le reportage se penche ensuite sur la préfabrication en usine. Ces procédés de préfabrication en usine selon le commentaire sont bien adaptés aux pays en voie de développement, cela est illustré dans le reportage par une réalisation en Libye à Benghazi. Dans la course à l'allégement des matériaux un procédé l'isola béton est présenté. Un chapitre sur la construction métallique explique les avantage de ce procédé. La fabrication de composants ouvre de nouvelles perspectives à l'industrie du bâtiment.

la construction des Autoroutes en France - Les liaisons moins dangereuses 1972 www.dailymotion.com/video/xxi0ae?playlist=x34ije - Ministère de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire - Dotation par la France d'autoroutes modernes "nécessité vitale" pour palier à l'inadaptation du réseau routier de l'époque voué à la paralysie : le reportage nous montre des images d'embouteillages. Le ministre de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire dans les deux gouvernements de Pierre Messmer, de 1972 à 1974, Olivier Guichard explique les ambitions du programme de construction qui doit atteindre 800 km par ans en 1978. L'ouverture de section nouvelles va bon train : Nancy / Metz par exemple. Le reportage nous montre l'intérieur des bureaux d'études qui conçoivent ces autoroute dont la conception est assistée par ordinateurs dont le projet d'ensemble en 3D est visualisé sur un écran. La voix off nous informe sur le financement de ces équipements. Puis on peut voir des images de la construction du pont sur la Seine à Saint Cloud reliant l'autoroute de Normandie au périphérique, de l'échangeur de Palaiseau sur 4 niveau : record d'Europe précise le commentaire. Le reportage nous informe que des sociétés d'économies mixtes ont étés crées pour les tronçons : Paris / Lille, Paris / Marseille, Paris / Normandie. Pour accélérer la construction l’État a eu recours à des concessions privées par exemple pour le tronçon Paris / Chartres. "Les autoroutes changent le visage de la France : artères économiques favorisant le développement industriel elles permettent de revitaliser des régions en perte de vitesse et de l'intégrer dans le mouvement général de l'expansion" Sur le plan européen elles vont combler le retard de la France et réaliser son insertion. Images de l'inauguration de l'autoroute entre Paris et Bruxelles par le président Georges Pompidou. Le reportage rappel que l'autre fonction capitale des autoroute est de favoriser la sécurité. La question de la limitation de vitesse est posée au ministre de l’Équipement, qui n'y est favorable que sur certains tronçons. Un des facteur de sécurité selon le commentaire est l'humanisation des autoroutes : aires de repos, restaurants, signalisation touristiques... "Rien n'est impossible aux techniques modernes" nous apprend la voix off qui prend comme exemple le déplacement sur rail de 65 mètres d'un château classé afin de faire passer l'autoroute Lille / Dunkerque.Durée : 4 minutes 30 secondes
Sur les routes de France les ponts renaissent 1945 reconstruction de la France après la Seconde Guerre mondiale www.dailymotion.com/video/xuxrii?playlist=x34ije , Quelques mois après la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un triste constat s'impose : 5 944 passages sont coupés, soit plus de 110 km de brèches ; de nombreuses villes se trouvent isolées.Les chantiers s'activent dans toute la France pour "gagner la bataille des communications routières". Mais outre la pénurie de main d’œuvre, il faut faire face au manque de matériaux (béton, métal) et donc déployer des trésors d'imagination pour reconstruire les ponts détruits. Si le savoir faire des tailleurs de pierre est exploité, le plus spectaculaire est le relevage des ponts, comme le pont de Galliéni à Lyon, où 7 à 800 tonnes d'acier sont sorti de l'eau avec des moyens de l'époque. En avril 1945, il reste 5 700 ponts à reconstruire soit 200 000 tonnes d'acier, 600 000 tonnes de ciment, 250 000 m3 de bois, 10 millions de journées d'ouvrier, prix de l'effort de reconstruction.1945

www.dailymotion.com/video/xw6lak?playlist=x34ije - Rue neuve 1956 la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, villes, villages, grands ensembles réalisation : Jack Pinoteau , Panorama de la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, ce film de commande évoque les villes et villages français détruits puis reconstruits dans un style respectant la tradition : Saint-Malo, Gien, Thionville, Ammerschwihr, etc. ainsi que la reconstruction en rupture avec l'architecture traditionnelle à Châtenay-Malabry, Arles, Saint Étienne, Évreux, Chambéry, Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Abbeville, Le Havre, Marseille, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Dunkerque. Le documentaire explique par exemple la manière dont a été réalisée la reconstruction de Saint-Malo à l'intérieur des rempart de la vieille ville : "c'est la fidélité à l'histoire et la force du souvenir qui a guidé l'architecte". Dans le même esprit à Gien, au trois quart détruite en 1940, seul le château construit en 1494 pour Anne de Beaujeu, fille aînée de Louis XI, fut épargné par les bombardements. La ville fut reconstruite dans le style des rares immeubles restant. Gien est relevé de ses ruines et le nouvel ensemble harmonieux est appelé « Joyau de la Reconstruction française ». Dans un deuxième temps est abordé le chapitre de la construction des cités et des grands ensembles, de l’architecture du renouveau qualifiée de "grandiose incontestablement".

www.twitter.com/Memoire2cite Des villes détruisent des HLM devenus trop nombreux, trop vieux, inlouables , Dans les zones touchées par la désindustrialisation et la perte de population, de nombreux logements doivent être démolis. Rue de la Chaume, à Montluçon (Allier), c’est le royaume des chats, plus nombreux que les locataires de cette résidence aux volets écaillés. Sur vingt-quatre appartements, six, tout au plus huit, sont occupés. « Inlouables, trop excentrés, trop chers », tranche Jacques Renault, membre de la Confédération générale du logement et représentant des locataires au conseil d’administration de Montluçon Habitat, le propriétaire.
L’office public HLM de l’agglomération a acheté cette résidence en 2005, pour un prix trop élevé, sans avoir de projet précis ni les fonds pour la réhabiliter, à la filiale HLM de la SNCF qui voulait s’en débarrasser. Car le temps où le groupe ferroviaire comptait plus de mille salariés dans ses ateliers de maintenance de Montluçon est révolu. Il n’en reste qu’une centaine aujourd’hui. Des HLM trop nombreux qu’il faut se décider à démolir. Montluçon Habitat n’est pas le seul à être confronté à l’obsolescence d’une partie de son patrimoine.

Dès 2015, les associations régionales HLM de cinq régions (Auvergne, Bourgogne, Champagne-Ardenne, Franche-Comté et Lorraine) ont sonné l’alarme en publiant leur manifeste pour une politique du logement en territoire détendu, qui affirmait : « On a trop construit de logements privés et publics, 38 500 par an jusqu’en 2011, alors que la moitié aurait suffi. »
La Fédération des offices publics HLM chiffre aujourd’hui à 30 000 le nombre de logements devant être démolis dans ces territoires d’ici à quatre ans, et 24 000 méritant une profonde restructuration.

www.dailymotion.com/video/xk6xui?playlist=x34ije , www.dailymotion.com/video/xk1dh2?playlist=x34ije :- que dire de RICARDO BOFFIL Les meilleures balades que j’ai fait autour de Paris je les ai faites dans l’application Plans. Je ne minore pas le rôle de Google Maps, révolution cartographique sans précédent et sans égale, qui aura réalisé nos fantasmes d’Aleph borgesien — l’idée d’un point d’où le monde serait visible en totalité — parachevé Mercator et permis d’explorer des parties du globe inconnues de Cook, Bougainville et Amundsen. Je n’oublie pas non plus cet exercice de cartographie au collège, qui nous avait démontré que nous étions à 3 cartes IGN de la capitale, et que le tissu urbain était de plus en plus serré à mesure que nous avancions vers le nord. Mais Plan possédait une fonctionnalité inédite, le Flyover, technologie à l’origine destinée aux pilotes de chasse, et qui fournissait des rendus 3D spectaculaire des bâtiments survolés — ainsi que des arbres et des déclivités du sol.On quittait enfin les champs asphyxiants de la photographie aérienne pour des vues à l’oblique des villes visitées : après un siècle d’écrasement — la photographie aérienne est étroitement contemporaine du bombardement aérien — les villes reprenaient enfin de la vigueur et remontaient vers le ciel. J’avais d’ailleurs effectué moi-même une manœuvre de redressement similaire le jour où j’étais parti, à pied depuis Paris, visiter à Nanterre une exposition sur la photographie aérienne. J’étais à la quête des premières vues de Paris qu’avait prises Nadar depuis un ballon captif. À défaut de ces images, définitivement manquantes, j’avais parcouru, après la Grande Arche, les derniers kilomètres de la Voie Royale, cette prodigieuse perspective historique partie du Louvre — rare exemple de frise chronologique implémentée dans une structure urbanistique.J’avais en réalité un peu dévié de la ligne droite pour aller voir les tours Nuages d’Emile Aillaud, le Facteur Cheval du modernisme, dont je connaissais déjà les autres chefs d’œuvres d'architecture naïve, les nouilles chinoises de Grigny et le spaghetti de Pantin.C’était précisément l’usage que j’avais fait de l’application Plans : j’étais parti à la recherche de tous les groupements de tour qu’elle m’avait permis d’identifier, sur mon iPad. Je les faisais tourner avec deux doigts, comme un éclaireur qui marcherait autour d’un donjon, avant de les immortaliser, sous leur plus bel angle, par une capture d’écran.Un éclaireur autour d’un donjon : c’était exactement cela, qui m’avait fasciné. Les guerres territoriales entre Les Tarterêts de Corbeil et les Pyramides d’Evry avaient marqué mon enfance. La notion de cité, telle qu’elle avait été définie, à partir des années 80, dans le second âge des grands ensembles, l’âge du déclin, avait conservé un cachet médiéval. Ici, vivaient guetteurs et trafiquants, condottieres à la tête d’une écurie de go-fast et entretenant des chenils remplis de mâtins rares et dangereux. Ici, l’État central ne remplissait plus ses tâches régaliennes, ici la modernité laïque était entrée en crise. Mais ce que j’avais découvert, en collectionnant ces captures d’écran, c’était à quel point l’urbanisme de la banlieue parisienne était, strictement, d’obédience médiévale. On était passé, d’un seul mouvement et sans même s’en rendre compte de Château-Gaillard à la Cité 4000, du Donjon de Vincennes aux tours de Sarcelles, du château de Gisors aux choux fleurs de Créteil.J’ai même retrouvé la colonne détruite du désert de Retz dans le babylonien château d’eau de Noisiel.Des hauteurs de Rosny à celle de Chanteloup, du plateau de Clichy à la dalle d’Argenteuil, on avait bizarrement livré des pastiches inconscients de la grande architecture militaire médiévales : les environs de Paris s’étaient retrouvés à nouveau fortifiés, la vieille tour de Montlhéry n’était plus solitaire, et même les immeubles de briques rouges qui avaient succédé à l’enceinte de Thiers évoquaient des murailles.
Et ce que j’avais initialement pris pour des anomalies, des accidents malheureux du post-modernisme, les grand ensembles voûtés et cannelés de Ricardo Boffil, étaient peut-être ce qui exprimait le mieux tout cela — ou du moins qui clôturaient avec le génie le plus clair cet âge des grands ensembles.
Car c’était cela, ces Carcassonnes, ces Acropoles, ces Atlandides qui surnageaient avec le plus de conviction au milieu des captures d’écrans de ruines médiévales qui s’accumulaient sur mon bureau.
Si décriées, dès leur construction, pour leur kitch intolérable ces mégastructures me sont soudain apparues comme absolument nécessaires.
Si les Villes Nouvelles n’ont jamais existé, et persisteront dans la mémoire des hommes, elles le doivent à ces rêveries bizarres et grandioses, à ces hybridations impossibles entre les cités idéales de Ledoux et les utopies corbuséennes.
L’Aqueduc de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, les Espaces d’Abraxas à Marne-la-Vallée, les Colonnes de Saint-Christophe à Cergy-Pontoise sont les plus belles ruines du Grand Paris.
www.franceculture.fr/emissions/la-conclusion/ricardo-bofill immerssion dans le monde du logement social, l'univers des logements sociaux, des H.B.M au H.L.M - Retour sur l'histoire du logement collectif d'apres guerre - En Françe, sur l’ensemble du territoire avant, 4 millions d’immeubles étaient vétustes, dont 500.000 à démolir; au total 10% des logements étaient considérés comme insalubres et 40% réputés d’une qualité médiocre, et surpeuplés. C’est pour ces raisons que, à partir de 1954, le Ministre à la Reconstruction et au Logement évalue le besoin en logements à 2.000.660, devenant ainsi une priorité nationale. Quelques années plus tard à l’appel de l’Abbé Pierre, le journaliste Gilbert Mathieu, en avril 1957 publiait dans le quotidien Le Monde une série d’articles sur la situation dramatique du logement : Logement, notre honte et dénonçant le nombre réduit de logements et leur impitoyable état. Robert Doisneau, Banlieue après-guerre, 1943-1949 /Le mandat se veut triple : reconstruire le parc immobilier détruit durant les bombardements essentiellement du printemps/été 1944, faire face à l’essor démographique et enfin résorber l’habitat insalubre notamment les bidonvilles et les cités de transit. Une ambition qui paraît, dès le début, très élevée, associée à l’industrialisation progressive de la nation entre autre celle du secteur de la construction (voir le vidéo de l’INA du 17 juillet 1957 intitulée La crise du logement, un problème national. Cela dit, l’effort pour l’État français était d’une ampleur jamais vue ailleurs. La double nécessité de construire davantage et vite, est en partie la cause de la forme architecturale excentrique qui constituera les Grands Ensembles dans les banlieues françaises. Cinq caractéristiques permettent de mieux comprendre ce terme : la rupture avec le tissu urbain ancien, un minimum de mille logements, une forme collective (tours, barres) de quatre jusqu’à vingt niveaux, la conception d’appartements aménagés et équipés et enfin une gestion destinée pour la plupart à des bailleurs de logement social.
Pour la banlieue parisienne leur localisation s’est opérée majoritairement dans la périphérie, tandis que dans les autres cas, plus de la moitié a été construite dans le centre ville, le plus souvent à la limite des anciens faubourgs.
Architecture d’Aujourd’hui n° 46, 1953 p. 58-55
C’est le triomphe de l’urbanisme fonctionnel et rationaliste cher à Le Corbusier. Entre 1958 et 1973, cent quatre-vingt-quinze Zones à Urbaniser en Priorité (ZUP) sont créées, comprenant deux millions de logements, essentiellement de type populaire en Habitations à Loyer Modéré (HLM), mais pas exclusivement, remplaçant ainsi les anciennes Habitations à Bon Marché (HBM) crées en 1894. Selon le décret du 27 mars 1954 qui en fixe les conditions d’attribution, les bénéficiaires de la législation n’ont pas changé, ce sont toujours des « personnes peu fortunées vivant principalement de leur salaire », selon la loi Strauss de 1906. En 1953, tous les HLM voient leur surface maximale se réduire, en passant de 71 à 65 mètres carrés pour un quatre pièces. L’accès au logement des familles modestes se fera donc au détriment de la qualité et quantité de l’espace habité pour des familles nombreuses. À ce propos, le sociologue Thierry Oblet a bien montré comment se sont articulées les pensées des architectes et des ingénieurs modernistes, avec leur souci planificateur d’un État interventionniste[8] grâce à l’hégémonie du béton, de la ligne droite et de la standardisation de la construction.
Les exemples de cette architecture restent nombreux : de la Cité de 4000 (pour 4000 logements) à la Courneuve en Seine-Saint-Denis (93) aux logements de 15 étages aux balcons pétales, appelés « Chou-fleur » à Créteil en Val-de Marne (94) dessinés au début des années 70 par l’architecte Gérard Grandval. De la Cité des nuages à Nanterre dans les Hauts-de-Seine (92) à la Grande borne construite entre 1967 et 1971 sur le territoire des communes de Grigny et Viry-Châtillon, dans l’Essonne (91) en passant par la Noé à Chanteloup-les-Vignes dans le département des Yvelines (78) scénario du célèbre film La Haine[9] de Kassovits.
Récemment, plusieurs expositions photographiques se sont
concentrées sur cette nouvelle figure de l’urbanisme fonctionnaliste français de l’après-guerre. Par exemple Toit&Moi, 100 ans de logement social (2012), Les Grands ensembles 1960-2010 (2012) produite par l’école supérieure d’arts & médias de Caen/Cherbourg, selon un projet du Ministère de la Culture et de la Communication. Enfin l’exposition Photographie à l’œuvre, (2011-2012) d’Henri Salesse, photographe du service de l’inventaire du Ministère de la Reconstruction et de l’Urbanisme et Voyage en périphérie (2012) de Cyrus Cornut. Il s’agissait là non seulement d’un progrès matériel, mais aussi démocratique, donnant ainsi à chaque citoyen, la possibilité d’accéder à son petit appartement doté de tous les conforts de l’époque. La recherche d’économie et de rapidité dans la conduite des chantiers portent à l’utilisation du béton comme matériel privilégié et à des plans architecturaux aussi simples que possible avec la réalisation de logements standardisés, dont les barres et les tours deviennent les figures principales : Au mitan des années cinquante, apparurent d’étranges formes urbaines. Des immeubles d’habitation de plus en plus longs et de plus en plus hauts, assemblés en blocs qui ne s’intégraient pas aux villes existantes. Ces blocs s’en différenciaient ostensiblement et parfois comme systématiquement, s’en isolaient. Ils semblaient faire ville à part. Surtout ils ne ressemblaient pas à ce qu’on avait l’habitude d’appeler ville. Et leur architecture aussi, qui était tellement déroutante. On les a nommés » grands ensembles. Cité de l’Abreuvoir, Bobigny (93), 2003 (Inventaire général du Patrimoine, Région Ile de France / Stéphane Asseline)
Bref, entre 1946 et 1975 le parc immobilier français passe de 12,7 millions à 21 millions de logements. Environ 8 millions de ceux-ci sont neufs, construits entre 1953-1975 – dont la moitié sous forme de grands ensembles – et près de 80 % des logements grâce à une aide de l’État avec des crédits publics. Le nombre de logements sociaux passe de moins de 500.000 à près de 3 millions, dont 43 % en région parisienne, où la demande est la plus forte[11]. Ce qui témoigne d’un effort énorme. Secrétariat d’État à la Reconstruction et au Logement, Supplément du logement en 1954, cité par Bachmann, C. Le Guennec, N., Violences urbaines…Op.cit, p.24. Alors que l’hiver 1954 est particulièrement rigoureux, l’abbé Pierre lance un appel en faveur des sans-logis et déshérités et organise des collectes de vêtements et de nourriture pour les plus démunis. Cela nous rappelle également que les inégalités sociales restaient particulièrement importantes à l’époque, malgré les débuts de la croissance économique, et que la crise du logement n’était pas encore complètement résolue. Danièle Voldman, La reconstruction des villes françaises de 1940 à 1954 : histoire d’une politique, Paris, L’Harmattan, 1997. Les Actualités françaises, La crise du logement, un problème national, 17 juillet, 1957, in fresques.ina.fr/…/la-crise-du-logement-un-probleme-n…, consulté le 20/02/2014. C’est l’urbaniste Marcel Rotival dans un numéro d’Architecture d’Aujourd’hui de juin 1935 (vol.1, n°6, juin 1935, p.57) qui propose pour la première fois cette terminologie pour désigner les Habitations à Bon Marché (HBM) et leur transformation en Habitations à Loyer Modéré (HLM), par la loi du 21 juillet 1951: « Nous espérons, un jour, sortir des villes comme Paris, non seulement par l’avenue des Champs Elysées, la seule réalisation de tenue sans laquelle Paris n’existerait pas, mais sortir par Belleville, par Charonne, par Bobigny, etc., et trouver harmonieusement disposés le long de larges autostrades, au milieu de grands espaces boisés, de parcs, de stades, de grandes cités claires, bien orientées, lumineusement éclairées par le soleil. » Largement reprise depuis les années 1950 dans le jargon administratif et public, elle apparaît pour la première fois dans un texte officiel qu’en 1973 avec la Circulaire Guichard, alors Ministre de l’Aménagement du territoire, de l’Equipement, du Logement et du tourisme. Celui-ci met un terme à la politique initiée après-guerre afin « d’empêcher la réalisation des formes d’urbanisation désignées généralement sous le nom de “grands ensembles”, peu conforme aux aspirations des habitants et sans justification économique sérieuse ». Paradoxalement, le terme de grands ensembles s’officialise donc au moment même où ils son mis en question. ZUP est un acronyme qui signifie Zone à Urbaniser en Priorité. Elles ont été créées par le décret N°58-1464 du 31 décembre 1958, afin de planifier et d’encadrer sur le territoire national, le développement urbain pour répondre à la carence de logements face à l’accroissement démographique et favoriser enfin la résorption de l’habitat insalubre.

En particulier par l’intermédiaire de la Société centrale de construction et de la Société centrale pour l’équipement du territoire, créées au milieu des années 1950 en tant que filiales de la Caisse des dépôts et consignations.

www.dailymotion.com/video/xw6lak?playlist=x34ije - Rue neuve 1956 la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, villes, villages, grands ensembles réalisation : Jack Pinoteau , Panorama de la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, ce film de commande évoque les villes et villages français détruits puis reconstruits dans un style respectant la tradition : Saint-Malo, Gien, Thionville, Ammerschwihr, etc. ainsi que la reconstruction en rupture avec l'architecture traditionnelle à Châtenay-Malabry, Arles, Saint Étienne, Évreux, Chambéry, Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Abbeville, Le Havre, Marseille, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Dunkerque. Le documentaire explique par exemple la manière dont a été réalisée la reconstruction de Saint-Malo à l'intérieur des rempart de la vieille ville : "c'est la fidélité à l'histoire et la force du souvenir qui a guidé l'architecte". Dans le même esprit à Gien, au trois quart détruite en 1940, seul le château construit en 1494 pour Anne de Beaujeu, fille aînée de Louis XI, fut épargné par les bombardements. La ville fut reconstruite dans le style des rares immeubles restant. Gien est relevé de ses ruines et le nouvel ensemble harmonieux est appelé « Joyau de la Reconstruction française ». Dans un deuxième temps est abordé le chapitre de la construction des cités et des grands ensembles, de l’architecture du renouveau qualifiée de "grandiose incontestablement". S’il est précisé "on peut aimer ou de ne pas aimer ce style", l’emporte au final l’argument suivant : les grands ensembles, c'est la campagne à la ville, un urbanisme plus aéré, plus vert." les films caravelles 1956, Réalisateur : Jack Pinoteau (connu pour être le metteur en scène du film Le Triporteur 1957 qui fit découvrir Darry Cowl) www.dailymotion.com/video/xuz3o8?playlist=x34ije - www.dailymotion.com/video/xk1g5j?playlist=x34ije Brigitte Gros - Urbanisme - Filmer les grands ensembles 2016 - par Camille Canteux chercheuse au CHS -Centre d'Histoire Sociale - Jeanne Menjoulet - Ce film du CHS daté de 2014 www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDUBwVPNh0s … L'UNION SOCIALE POUR L'HABITAT le Musée des H.L.M. musee-hlm.fr/ union-habitat.org/ - EXPOSITION :LES 50 ANS DE LA RESIDENCe SALMSON POINT-Du JOUR www.salmsonlepointdujour.fr/pdf/Exposition_50_ans.pdf - Sotteville Construction de l’Anjou, le premier immeuble de la Zone Verte sottevilleaufildutemps.fr/2017/05/04/construction-de-limm... - www.20minutes.fr/paris/diaporama-7346-photo-854066-100-an... - www.ladepeche.fr/article/2010/11/02/940025-140-ans-en-arc... dreux-par-pierlouim.over-blog.com/article-chamards-1962-9... missionphoto.datar.gouv.fr/fr/photographe/7639/serie/7695...

Plavic It was believed that Plavic was a French brand of camera bodies as well for the lens and shutters, but this is not exactly true:
As to Sylvain Halgand
"The traces of Plavic are in the catalog of Photo-Plait 1919. The actual name of the manufacturer is Planchon Cellulose Corporation in Lyon. Their production is limited to the cellulose films and maybe printing papers and photographic chemicals.
The problem with Plavic is that this brand has never made cameras.
The cameras named Plavic made by another manufacturer and Plavic completed its offers by including devices to their catalog.
They seem few and have been circulated before or around the 1930.
The shutters in Plavic cameras were named Plavicos but it was made by Gitzo".
I found no information about the manufacturers of the Plavic lenses.
Plavic marked cameras were Pliant 127 and 6x9 folders, Le Plavico 6x9, and Box etc. All of them were the same cameras of other brands.
So, here, this Plavic camera is exactly the same camera as much as in very fine details and lens with Hémax folder plate serie 00. It is clear that this camera was made by Héard & Mallinjod for Plavic.
I couldn't find any information about 9x12 plate camera labelled as Plavic in the internet sources but in McKeown's.
As to McKeown's Cameras 2006: in the Planchon section, p.786
The company was founded by Victor Planchon, Boulogne & Lyon, France.
Hirlemann & Moreau (later Héard & Mallinjod) made a 6x9cm and 9x12cm folding plate cameras in c.1920-28 under the Hemax label. After those dates some Hemax cameras are found under the PLAVIC label (PLAnchon VICtor). Victor Planchon collaborated with the Lumiere brothers in fabricating the first films for the Cinematographe in Boulogne-sur-mer and later in Lyon. He became director of the Lumiere factory in the Lyon suburb of Feysin where he made and distributed films with Lumiere emulsions under the name Plavic. For some time, he also sold Plavic cameras in 9x12cm, 6x9cm sizes, before these became Lumiere cameras".
Gitzo is a French company, founded in 1917. Its name was derived from the founder's name Arsène Gitzhoven. Gitzo was a name given to an early shutter and later adopted for all products manufactured by the company. Initially Gitzo made camera equipment and precision accessories, especially shutters. After World War II it concentrated on the manufacture of tripods and tripod heads, for which it is renowned today.
Camera importers and manufacturers offered their camera models with a range of shutter and lens combinations. A good example for this are the Héard & Mallinjod Hemax models, which were offered with a range of lenses manufactured by Berthiot, Boyer, Darlot, Hermagis, Itier and Roussel, and for which Gitzo, Vario and Compur shutters were available. as to Camerapedia

With at least 3 marriages in my grandmother's family tree (apparently) in as many generations conducted within /b/ 1805 and 1853, this most historic bldg. in this historic city features more often than any other I know of as a setting for such events in my mother's family history. (See below.)
- "St John's Kirk is the oldest standing building in Perth, and is one of the most important parish kirks in Scotland. It was first mentioned in 1126, and has played a central part in the life of the burgh. The original building was completed by 1241, when the Kirk was dedicated by the Bishop of St Andrews, but it has undergone many alterations since then. In 1440 a new choir was built, now the oldest remaining part of the building. The nave was rebuilt later in the century.
- "The best known incident to take place [here] was John Knox's sermon against idolatry, preached on May 11, 1559. Some of the congregation (Knox referred to them as "the rascal multitude") took him at his word, stoned the priest, stripped the church of all its fittings and ornaments, then ran to the Greyfriars, Blackfriars, and Charterhouse monasteries and stripped them down to their bare walls. [Wtf?] After the reformation, partitions were erected to divide the church into 3, the East, Middle and West Kirks, each with its own congregation and minister." www.perthcity.co.uk/attractions-and-leisure/buildings-mon... www.scottish-places.info/parishes/parhistory555.html My great x 3 grandparents (Mom's Mom's Mom's Dad's parents) and the bride's parents, my great 4 grandparents, were married in this church, specifically the 'East Church Parish'. (See below.)
- St. John's has the finest collection of post-Reformation church plate in Scotland. And the collection of medieval bells is the largest to have survived in Great Britain.
- Perth's old name 'St. John's town' was a reference to this kirk.

The following's only of interest to close family or to those on my Mom's Mom's side. (It's a dry repository of info. re my Mom's Mom's tree.):
- My great great grandparents (Mom's Mom's Dad's folks), George McLaren and Helen/Ellen Marshall, were married in Perth in 1853, but probably not in St. John's kirk as they were members of the 'Free Church', a popular denomination at the time, and although it was only 10 years old in 1853, there were a number of Free church bldg.s in and @ town back then. They were married by a Rev. Murdoch for what that's worth. But at least 2 or 3 couples a little further up my grandmother's tree were betrothed in this medieval pile (incl. my great grandmother's father's parents David Greig and Elizabeth Whittet in 1826, Elizabeth's parents Alexander Whittet and Helen/Nelly Mackie in 1805, and possibly my great grandmother's great great grandparents, her Mom's Dad's Dad John Menzies' folks in 1767.)
- "The Free Church of Scotland was formed in 1843 when most of the evangelical ministers in the Church of Scotland resigned because of state interference in its internal affairs. ... Under a system known as Patronage, landowners could nominate and present ministers to congregations, irrespective of whether those ministers were evangelical or even whether the congregation wanted them. This was regarded by many as totally unacceptable. ... The result was that in 1843, in what became known as 'The Disruption', [the] new denomination was formed. ... Immediately following the Disruption, Perth - 'where the Scottish Reformation first sprang from thought into action' - had 5 Free Church congregations." www.knoxchurchperth.com/history.html
GREIG - WHITTET - MACKIE
- A pair of great x 3 grandparents (Mom's Mom's Mom's Dad's folks), David Greig and Elizabeth "Whytock" (sic, Whittet), were married in Perth in this church a generation earlier in 1826, specifically in the 'East Church Parish' portion or division of it, as witnessed by church 'elder Robert Duncan'. I don't know of any ancestors in my tree who married younger. The groom was 16 or 17 and already a shoemaker, and the bride was 13 or 14 (more likely 14), but only if they both reported their ages accurately to census-takers in 1851, and if Elizabeth did so in 1861. Census records are contradictory as to whether their son Robert, my great great grandfather, was born in Perth or in Edinburgh, but most likely Edinburgh; 3 records indicate Perth and 2 Edinburgh, but those 2 are the earliest (neither is a baptismal record). If he misrepresented his place of birth as Perth, that could be a red flag that he wasn't proud of his childhood in Edinburgh or that he didn't have deep roots there. But his father David, the young groom, was born in Edinburgh. David and Elizabeth were both living in Perth in 1826, where he was "in the East Church Parish of Perth" and she was "in said Parish" per their marriage record. Elizabeth was born and/or raised in Inchture, Perthshire in the 'Carse of Gowry', much closer to Dundee than to Perth. Her family was living in Perth (per this church's register) when her elder and younger sisters were baptized in this church, so the family seems to have moved back and forth some. It's also possible that they commuted from Inchture for those baptisms and that the minister or registrar was careless or assumed the family was living in Perth when he indicated as much in those entries in the register (despite his impressive handwriting).
- Elizabeth's parents, Alexander Whittet and Helen/Nellie Mackie, were married in this church as well another generation earlier by the august Rev. James Scott. artuk.org/discover/artworks/reverend-james-scott-of-perth... They spent some time in Perth. Did one of them have roots here? (More re Elizabeth's parents below.)
- @ 15 yr.s later, the young couple David and Elizabeth Greig and their 6 kids, of whom great great granddad was the eldest, were living in 'the Northback of Canongate' in Edinburgh, a crowded slum then, while David worked as a 'Bootcloser'. www.watercolourworld.org/collections/8ee47a53-02c0-3ba8-9... 10 yr.s later, he'd become a 'Master' shoemaker employing 2 people (incl. his son, great great granddad, I think, an apprentice 10 yr.s earlier) and the family had moved to an apt. in the "3rd House Right hand" in Skinner's close on the High st. at its west end in the "Parish of Tron church" (another slum then but the ultimate in prime real estate today), a low entrance to which is now covered by a convex mirror.: www.tiktok.com/@andy_highlander/video/7208633282970340614 www.nationalgalleries.org/art-and-artists/8193/skinners-c... www.google.com/maps/@55.9489106,-3.195509,3a,90y,353.68h,... (The impressive courtyard behind the entrance isn't on google maps.) My great x 3 grandmother Elizabeth's death record indicates both Skinner's Close and 64 High st. further east as her address (?). She was living as a widow in a small apt. at 64 High st. 2 yr.s earlier at age 48.
GREIG (and possibly REID, RUSSELL, FORBES, YOUNG, SHORT, REEKIE and PATERSONE)
- Genealogy can be a vice. The following lengthy series of paragraphs re the Greig branch of my tree, from a few paragraphs down to that with the heading MENZIES, is a bit like a difficult Sudoku where you make a 50/50 guess here and there, but more than once or twice leads you astray. I can and will compare the names of siblings of 'candidates' for ancestors with the names of their parents and grandparents in light of Scottish naming traditions (time-consuming), but otherwise the upper reaches of this tree are too speculative and I should edit the following way down. I revisited the Whittet-Mackie side of my tree (see below) and was reminded by those ancestors who lived in the early days of the Scottish census that as often as not baptism and marriage records are NOT extant. If not for those early censuses and the great statutory death records, I might've run with the "best candidates" and barked way up the wrong family tree(s). There are clues to look for, and I'm pretty sure I found some good ones in the McLaren branch (see below and see if you don't agree), but researching the "best candidate" w/o more to go on is wishful thinking. I'll delete most of the following re the Greig tree when I'm done, but I'll take a break too. (Why so much speculation you ask? I'm interested in the Greig branch of my tree what with the history of the clan MacGregor, which I write about here: www.flickr.com/photos/97924400@N00/9971315903/in/photostr... , and wondered if I could find results that reach back towards the early 17th cent. I'm also encouraged by the quality of the records in Edinburgh, and David Greig is the only one of my grandmother's great grandparents who was born in the city [as far as I know] and so he might well have roots there.)
- Census-takers reported twice that my great x 3 grandfather David Greig was born in Edinburgh, once that he was 41 in 1851 (going on 42 later that year?) and that his wife Elizabeth was 38. They were both 30 in 1841, but adults' ages were rounded up or down to the nearest 5 that year. So it appears that David was born in 1809 or 1810, assuming that David knew how old he was. 3 David Greigs were baptized in the city /b/ 1808 and 1811, 5 /b/ 1800 and 1820. I found 3 of the 5 in official death records and a 4th with 'Find a Grave', and none are a match. The only possible exception in extant records was sired by Robert Greig "Weaver Mint" and Janet REID in the parish of 'St. Cuthbert's' in Jan., 1807, again 2 years too old if David knew his DoB. It's not unlikely that David's baptism record isn't extant. None of the 23 David Greigs born /b/ 1800 and 1820 in Scotland who died after 1855 are a match, and the 3 Davids who appear in Church death records (typically very spotty) /b/ 1850 and 1855 don't match either.
- Re the Mint: the former premises of "the Royal Mint of Scotland ... in Edinburgh housed various trades in the early 19th cent. ... The Mint was located in South Gray's Close (aka Mint Close) off the Cowgate/South Bridge area." (Google A.I.) St. Cuthbert's is a famous church below the castle at the west end of Prince's st. gardens, and the parish was a large one that stretched to the north and south of the church. But South Gray's close is central, just @ the block from 59 Blackfriar's where my great grandmother and her family lived when she was a girl in the 1870s.
- No marriage record is extant for Robert Greig and Janet Reid in Scotland /b/ 1760 and 1808, nor a baptism record for any sibling of their son David.
- At least 55 Robert Greigs were baptized /b/ 1750 and 1792 in Scotland (many in Fife), 3 in Midlothian, 1 in Inveresk and 2 in St. Cuthbert's, Edinburgh in 1756 and 1782 (age 25 in 1807). The latter was sired by David Greig, "Weaver at Bell's Mill Steps" and Isobella RUSSELL, who have an interesting marriage record (1775) "in the Session of St. Cuthbert's".: They "voluntarily compeared [compear = "to appear in court personally or by attorney" in Scots law] before the session - being interrogate acknowledged their clandestine marriage - produced lines to that effect dated Edin. 11th November 1775. Signed [signature] one Charles Johnson as Min.r gave proof of their being single persons prior to the date of said clandestine marriage - were declared married persons rebuked exhorted and dismissed." (Strange but boilerplate, 4 of 5 entries on the page are in the same wording. "Clandestine marriages" were to be "rebuked", etc.) David and Isobella sired at least 6 kids /b/ 1777 and 1787. IF Robert Greig was also born in Midlothian, and if the records pertaining to this branch of my tree are extant to 1750, then it appears that this David Greig and Isobella Russell were my great x 5 grandparents (Mom's Mom's Mom's Dad's Dad's Dad's folks).
- "Bell's Mills was a historic milling site located on the 'Water of Leith' near Belford rd. in the Dean Village area of Edinburgh [one of the loveliest, most popular spots in the city]. The area featured a water mill - the last to operate on the river - which was destroyed in an explosion in 1971. The site, featuring steep steps leading down to the water and the nearby Bell's Brae, is now a residential area near the Dean Village." (Google A.I.) youtube.com/shorts/Ek-g5TlF5dA?si=b4LySjelC8KFzxBH
- At least 351 Janet/Jannet/Jane Reids (!) were baptized /b/ 1760 and 1792 in Scotland, 38 in Midlothian, 27 in Edinburgh, 5 in St. Cuthbert's, 12 in Edinburgh /b/ 1776 and 1792 (a better match with the candidate for Robert above [for what it's worth], but 12 is a lot) incl. 1 in St. Cuthbert's, sired in 1785 (22 in 1807) by Peter Reid, "Clerk of the Customs in the Grass Market," and Margaret Scede. "Peter Reid, Clerk of the Customs, and Sheep Flakes ["racks or open wicker cages used to hold fodder for sheep during winter" {Google A.I.}] in Grass Market, Edin.r, Residenter in Fountain Briggs [{sic, Fountainbridge} married] Margaret Seede Law.l Daur. of the Deceased Robert Seede, Gardener in Abbeyhill, pres.t Residenter in Canongate ..." in 1781. (I worked as a duty counsel for years on a per diem basis and would occasionally note a connection /b/ a surname on the docket and the crime alleged. Eg.s - Upper, Purchase, Hardware, Felato -> Drug charges, shoplifting, weapons charges, and Soliciting for prostitution [pre-2013], respectively. When everyone you meet makes the same jokes all your life when they learn your name, it can play with your head. The same dynamic applies to professional choices, etc.) Margaret's parents were "Rob.t Seed Gardiner in Abbeyhill & Giles McIntyre" in Leith South (per her brothers' baptism records). At least 3 Peter Reids were baptized in Edinburgh /b/ 1745 and 1766, 2 in St. Cuthbert's. But Janet Reid was too common a name in Edinburgh in the late 18th cent. (again 12 in that 16 yr. window), and I think it's too speculative to research her tree further (and Peter and Margaret might've been too established to have a weaver for a son-in-law, what with the vicious classism of the time, and which persists over there).
- At least 41 David Greigs were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1731 and 1761, 4 in Midlothian/Edinburgh, 3 in St. Cuthbert's in 1736 (39 in 1775), 1745 and 1751 (24 in '75), and 1 in "Edinburgh" (the High st.?) in 1734 (41 in '75). The latter 2 in St. Cuthbert's were both sired by Robert Greig, a "Shoemaker in [the] Pleasants" in 1751 (a "Cordiner" in 1743 [a name for cobblers in Edinburgh who worked with leather imported from Cordoba]), and Grissell/Grizell FORBES, who married in 1742 at St. Cuthbert's and sired 8 kids /b/ 1743 and 1761. (I assume their elder son David passed away.) IF David Greig of 'Bell's Mills Steps' was born in Midlothian and if the record for his baptism is extant, the son of Robert Greig and Grizell Forbes appears to be a match.
- Isobella Russell was the "Daughter of James Russell weaver there" (at 'Bell's Mill steps'). 19 baptism records are extant for an Isabel/Isobel/etc. Russel/Russell sired by a James, 3 in Midlothian, 2 in Edinburgh, incl. one from 1753 for an Isobell who appears to be a match, the daughter of "James Russell weaver in Waters of Leiths and spouse Elisabeth YOUNG ... witness John & George Young weavers @ Dean haugh". James and Elisabeth's unusually informative marriage record of 1751 reveals that James married the boss's niece or cousin. He was a "Weaver Servant [apprentice?] to George Young, Water of Leith ..." Isobell was one of 9 siblings baptized at "Bells Milns", the "Waters of Leith", "@ Dean", St. Cuthbert's, Edinburgh /b/ 1751 and 1770.
- At least 4 infants named Robert Greg, no Greigs (although two had siblings named Greig) were baptized in Midlothian /b/ 1697 and 1727, all in Edinburgh, 1 in 1711 in Leith South (near the docks; sired by Thomas Greg/Greig and Rachel Reekie), 2 in 1719 and 1723 in Liberton (a few miles south of 'the Pleasance'; their fathers married as "Gregg"), and 1 in "Edinburgh" in 1726. At least 11 Robert Greigs and 1 Greige were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1697 and 1727, 6 in Fife, 5 in neighbouring co.s and 1 near the village of 'Unthank' in Aberdeenshire. Per their marriage record of 1742, "Robert ... [was] in Pleasants" and "Grissell ... daughter to Alex.r Forbes in Berwick, now in this parish." Again, after a move Grissell/Grizell was "now in [the] parish", while Robert was "in Pleasants", which seems to imply by omission that he was born and raised in Edinburgh (but maybe not). "Thomas Greig Weaver" was a frequent witness at the baptisms of Robert and Grissell's kids, and Thomas Greg/Gregg and Rachel REEKIE (nope, not the most glamourous of surnames) also sired a Thomas Greig in 1720. His brother Robert is the sole candidate of the 16 (4 + 12) in extant baptism records to have a brother named Thomas. Per the baptism record of his youngest brother in 1722, his father Thomas was a "Weaver in Pleasants". In light of these points and as 2 of his siblings were baptized as Greigs, it appears that this Robert, the son of Thomas Greg/Greig and Rachel Reeky/Reekie, baptized in 1711, married Grissell Forbes in 1742 and sired David Greig, cordiner in the "Pleasants", in 1743.
- Only 1 record is extant for the baptism of a Grissell/Grizell/Grissil sired by an Alexander Forbes in Scotland /b/ 1690 and 1730, in Wemyss, Fife, but none in Berwick (the city of 'North Berwick' of Berwick witch-trials [1590] infamy? youtu.be/ZtNu6Xfv6fo?si=ezccBHX6gC3WFos7 ) or Berwickshire, and no record is extant for the marriage of an Alexander Forbes in Berwickshire /b/ 1650 and 1760. "Archbald [sic] son to Alexander Forbes in Wadderlie" (aka Wedderlie, "a prominent estate and house located in the parish of Westruther in the co. of Berwickshire" 40-50 km.s SE of Edinburgh) was baptized in 1717 and might have been a brother or a cousin. Early 18th cent. "records mention an Alexander Forbes who was a doctor of medicine and may have had legal or financial ties to that estate." [Google A.I.]) The reference to Grissell's father in her marriage record might indicate that he was notable, but a medical doctor was highly unlikely to have a cordiner for a son-in-law then, again what with the odious British classism. In any case, either Grissell/Grizell's baptism record is missing or she was sired in 1718 (24 in 1742) by "Alexander Forbes weaver in Mothil hill" (Methilhill, on the banks of the Leven and "suggested to mean "middle church," referring to its position /b/ Markinch and Wemyss" - Google A.I.) and Helen GOODALE in the parish of Wemyss, Fife, a 25-20 km. boat-ride from North Berwick across the mouth of the Forth. That Alexander was a "weaver in Wester Wooms" (Wester Wemyss) and Helen was in Methilhill when they married in Wemyss in 1717. Alexander, Helen and their family could only have sailed for Berwickshire from Fife after the birth of their daughter Janet in 1727 in Kirkcaldy. Grissil had 2 siblings, Janet and Margaret (1721), but no record is extant for the marriage of a Janet or a Margaret Forbes in Berwickshire, nor in Wemyss nor Kirkcaldy, Fife /b/ 1735 and 1777.
- The only record of the baptism of an Alexander Forbes in Wemyss (or anywhere w/in 25 km.s of Wemyss) /b/ 1670 and 1703 was that of the son of Alexander Forbes Sr. and Ewhpem (sic) GARDNER in 1688 (29 in 1717). No marriage record is extant for Alexander Sr. and Ewphem, but baptism records are extant for Alexander Jr.'s sisters Cathren (1683), Katharin (1685 [Cathren must have died in infancy]) and Margaret in 1691.
- 7 baptism records are extant for a Helen/Helene Goodale/Goodaill in Scotland /b/ 1660 and 1703, but only 1 in Fife, in Auchtermuchty, > 20 km.s north of Wemyss, sired in 1665 by an Alexander Goodaill and, coincidentally (?) a Geils RIKIE (see Rachel Reekie/Rikie below), and 6 in Haddingtonshire (East Lothian today). Alexander and Geils/Geilles also sired James in 1661, and Jaine (sic) in Pitmarry, Auchtermuchty parish, in 1664. "Andrew Rikie", a witness at the latter baptism, is noted as Alexander's "brother in law". ("Geilles" is a "Reikie" and Andrew is a "Rikie" in the same entry.) Alexander Goodeall (sic) married Geillis Rikie, "both in [the] parish" of Auchtermuchty, in 1659.
- 30 records are extant for the baptism of an Alexander Forbes in Scotland (many in Aberdeen) /b/ 1630 and 1669, 3 in Fife, but none within 25 clicks of Wemyss. A Euffon Garden was baptized in Longforgan in 1652, Euphin Gardiner sired by a Thomas in 1669 and Ewpham Gardiner sired by a William, both in Errol, Euphem Gardner in Dalkeith in 1660, and a Eupham Gardner in Dundee in 1661, but none w/in 30 km.s of Wemyss. Oh well.
- At least 4 Alexander Goodaills were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1615 and 1645, 1 in Angus, 3 south of the Forth, but none in Fyfe. No baptism record is extant for anyone with a name resembling Geils Rikie/Reikie/etc. /b/ 1600 and 1650, but 11 baptisms were held for infants named Rikie in Scotland /b/ 1628 and 1669, 10 in Fife, incl. 5 in Auchtermuchty /b/ 1650 and '54 sired by Robert Rikie, Andrew Rikie and Christian Smyth, and 3 by Henrie Rikie and Margaret Mair (for what that's worth). youtu.be/5DQHmFx3sHY?si=U6704F4cpuViW3Va
- James Russell was the son of "William Russell weaver there" at 'Water of Leith' per James' marriage record. At least 24 infants named James Russell were sired by William Russells in Scotland /b/ 1710 and 1737, 4 in Midlothian, 2 in Edinburgh, 1. the son of "William Russell poultryman & Marg.t Lennox" of Leith North in 1721, and 2. the son of "William Russell weaver in Lochend and Isabell SHORT" in Leith South in 1730. The latter for the son of a weaver is clearly the best candidate for a match. "In the early 18th cent., Lochend was located in the rural, eastern portion of the parish of South Leith, characterized by the large estate and loch of the same name ... near the village of Restalrig and east of the developing town of Leith." James had two younger brothers, William Jr. (1732) and George (1736).
- When William married Isabell in 1729, she was a "Servant to the Laird of Dirletown", a village and castle in East Lothian, @ 31 km.s east of Edinburgh. The said Laird was then 'William Nisbet, younger of Dirleton', who "resided at Archerfield House, as Dirleton castle [a medieval fortress] had been ruined [by Cromwell] in the 1650 siege". Palatial, Downton-Abbey-esque Archerfield house is pimped out today (like every one of the U.K.'s umpteen estates, etc.) as a wedding venue, luxury resort, etc. youtu.be/qE2JApHwe8s?si=EzOS2UGT-f3juXix
- Elizabeth Young was the "young daughter [of] Andrew Young shoemaker in Edinburgh" per her marriage record. At least 8 infants named Elizabeth/Elisabeth Young were sired by an Andrew Young /b/ 1710 and 1737, 2 in Midlothian, 1 in Edinburgh sired by Andrew Young and Jean Nuckle in Cramond (a suburb) in 1727, the 2nd of at least 5 siblings. Andrew's profession is omitted on all 5 records as well as on the record of his marriage in 1719 to Jean Nuccoll "in the parish of Alloa". Cramond's at the outskirts of greater Edinburgh and I'd expect Elizabeth's marriage record to specify that Andrew was from there if he was. (It's lovely, I visited my great Ena there in '85 and toured the low ruins of Roman walls.) I think it's more likely her baptism record isn't extant or that her family moved to the city when she was young.
- At least 118 infants named William Russell/Russall/etc. were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1685 and 1715, 12 in Midlothian, 10 in Edinburgh incl. 1 in St. Cuthbert's and 4 in Leith South. 2 good candidates for the husband of Isabell Short and the father of James Russell are 1. a William sired in 1702 by "Ninian Russell woivor [sic, weaver] at Loghend [sic] & Bessie Hall his spouse" and 2. another William sired in 1712 by another "Ninian Russell woivor [sic] in Lochend now abroad & Joan BORTHWICK his spouse.'' Either 2 cousins in Lochend named Ninian, both weavers, have sired 2 more cousins, or Ninian sired a William with his first wife, that child passed away, and he remarried and sired a 2nd William in 1712.
- At least 10 infants named Isabel/Isobell Short were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1690 and 1715, none in Haddingtonshire/East Lothian, and only 1 in Midlothian/Edinburgh, sired by David Short, Tanner, and Barbara HOME/Hoam in 1695. No marriage record is extant for this couple. Isobell was the eldest of 5 siblings.
- At least 3 David Shorts (and one Shortus) were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1651 and 1681, 2 in Midlothian, 1 in Edinburgh sired by a David Short Sr., "marikin dresser" (?) and Issobell (sic) WATT in 1672. (One of the witnesses was a "marikin dresser" too. "Marikin" might derive from maroquin, a type of leather.) David Sr. and Issobell married in Edinburgh in 1667, and David Jr. had 6 siblings (1668 - 1681; David's marikin dressing supported a family of 8).
- Barbara Home was sired by a William Home, merchant, and Catharine DEANS in Edinburgh in 1667. William and Catherine married earlier that year and sired at least 4 kids by 1672. (Witnesses incl. Alexander and David Home in 1672, and George and William Home, merchants, in 1669.)
- At least 1 infant named Katherine/Catharine/etc. Dean/Deans/etc. was baptized in Scotland /b/ 1627 and 1653, Catherine sired by George Deanes, advocat (lawyer) and Barbara CORSER/Corsar/Cossar in Edinburgh in 1641 (25-26 in 1667) and 1 of 12 siblings sired /b/ 1631 and '49. When George married Barbara in 1628, he was a "wreater", Scots for writer, a legal professional, specifically a "writer to the signet".
- At least 7 infants named William Home were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1635 and 1653 (William was a "young merchant" per the baptism of his son Alexander in 1672, so it's a safe bet he was younger than 33 when he married, likely no more than a few years older than his wife), ALL in Duns (!), Berwickshire. "The Home (or Hume) family, specifically the Home of Wedderburn branch, are a ... cadet branch of the Earls of Home, holding the historic seat of Wedderburn Castle near Duns, a 18th-cent. country house, after acquiring the land in the early 15th cent." (Google A.I.) The best candidates, in light of age alone, are a Williame (sic) sired by a William Home and Margaret Drysdell in 1636, William and Jenet Home in 1637, Sir William Home and Jennet Baillyie (sic) in 1641, Robert and Margrat (sic) Home in 1644 and David and Hellin Sinclar (sic) in 1644. The William sired by Sir William and Jennet Baillyie would be the same age as his wife Catherine, for what that's worth.
- At least 1 infant named Barbara Corser/Corsar/etc. was baptized in Scotland /b/ 1580 and 1617, sired in Edinburgh in 1610 by David Corser and Bessie LASOUN. No marriage record is extant for this couple, but they sired at least 7 kids in Edinburgh /b/ 1606 and 1620.
- At least 1 George Dean/Deanes/etc. was baptized in Scotland /b/ 1590 and 1617, sired by Williame (sic) Deanis and Jonet (sic) Reid in 1612, but way up in Aberdeen, and as at least 6 Deanes were baptized in that period in Midlothian (none extant elsewhere), 2 in Pencaitland in East Lothian, and 4 sired by 3 couples in Edinburgh, I'd wager that George the advocat was born south of the Forth.
-
- The ONLY extant bapt. record that might be a match for Rachel Reekie/Reeky /b/ 1560 and 1782 is for a Rachel Rikie sired by a Thomas Rikie in "cottowns [cottages] of Forret [hill]", Fife in 1686. She had 4 siblings incl. James Rikie, baptized in 1682. A James Reekie was a witness at a baptism of Thomas and Rachel's son Thomas Jr. in 1720 (the only Reekie who attended as a witness; no Gregs/Greigs).
- A Thomas Reikie (the only candidate for Rachel's father Thomas Rikie in marriage records) married Beatrix PATERSONE in Logie in 1660. A Thomas Reikie (the only candidate in Scotland), son of Thomas Reikie Sr., was baptized in Dysart in southern Fife in 1645. (The writing in these records resembles Arabic or the contents of some forbidding grimoire. Paper must have been very precious then.)
- My grandmother mentioned more than once that Edinburgh had been known as "Auld Reekie" (common knowledge today) for something of a stench in the unhygienic closes along the High st., and that residents would shout "Gardy loo!" (from the French "Gardez l'eau") as they'd pour their buckets of excrement, etc. out the windows in their closes. What would she say if I told her that her great x 5 grandmother (my great x 7 [!]; her Mom's Dad's Dad's Dad's Dad's Mom) might have been named Reekie (or Reikie/Reeky/etc.) herself? Per Google A.I., the surname "is of Scottish origin, primarily originating in Fife and Aberdeenshire as a habitational name or a diminutive of "Rickard" (a form of Richard). It likely derives from the Older Scots name Ricky or Reky, or references geographical locations like Reekie Linn. Historically, it is associated with smoky, foggy areas, possibly linked to the nickname for Edinburgh, "Auld Reekie"."
- "Thomas Greg" had been a "Serv.t [apprentice] to John Ochiltree weaver Burges of Eye" and "Rachel Reekie [was a] serv.t to Widow Stewart in Pleasants" when they married in June, 1708. They sired 6 kids /b/ 1711-1722, 1 in 'Caltoun', 2 at or near St. Ninian's chapel (both in Leith South), etc. and the youngest in 'Pleasants' south of the High st. Again the best (and only) candidate for his wife Rachel was born in 1686 (22 in 1708). I doubt that Thomas could have been > 3 yr.s younger than his wife, nor more than 10 years older. At least 10 infants named Thomas Greg/Grege/Gregg/Greig were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1676 and 1689, 5 in Midlothian, 4 in Edinburgh and 1 in Fife. The most interesting could be the son sired in 1688 by David Greig and Agnes Ballingall in "Carslogie ground", Monimail parish, Fife (the only one from Fife), "just west of Cupar", only @ 6 km.s SW of Forret hill, the home of Rachel Rikie, who was only 2 yr.s his senior and, again, the only candidate in extant records for Robert Greg's mother. A country road named "Main st." leads @ 4 km.s straight up across farmland from just north of Cupar to Forret hill. Is that too coincidental to be coincidental? But note that Robert Greg's parents married in St. Cuthbert's. At least 1 Thomas Greig was sired in St. Cuthbert's by a Thomas Greig Sr. and Margaret Watt, both "in [that] parish" when they married and who sired 2 kids in "Birsto [sic]", "the area known as the Bristo Port (gate), ... /b/ ... Grassmarket/Lauriston to the west and Nicolson St./Potterrow to the east". Nicolson st. is < 200 m.s west of Pleasance.
-
Again, I don't assume David knew his year of birth, but the 2-3 year gap and the fact that this candidate Robert was a weaver, not a cobbler (David was already a "Shoemaker" by the age of 16 or 17) weighs against him. Then again, I note that my great x 3 grandfather named his eldest son Robert, and that this candidate, Robert, was the son of a David.
- One of the 5 David Greigs I mentioned, the son of William Greig and Jane Adamson, was born in 1810 in "Jack's Land" in the 'Northback of Canongate', which again is where my great x 3 grandfather David and his family were living in 1841. So I wondered if William might be a relative, but I've researched his tree and haven't found a connection.
MENZIES (More below)
- Great great granddad's father-in-law (Mom's Mom's Mom's Mom's Dad), Archibald Menzies, was baptized in the city of Perth @ 20 yr.s earlier, but in 'the Gaelic chapel' built in 1787, which served Highlander immigrants to the city until the mid-19th-cent. Services were conducted in Gaelic there. (Archibald's mother hailed from a coastal town on the Firth of Moray not far east of Inverness [see below], and his father hailed from a gaelophone region in Perthshire, quite possibly in or @ Weem or Dull in north Perthshire.) The bldg.'s been the venue for a succession of night-clubs much more recently ('Electric Whispers' and 'ZOO Nightclub'), but was demolished in 2016. www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/perths-zoo-nightclub-to...
MARSHALL/MARSHAL - CHALMERS (and RORY/ROREY) - CAMERON
- My grandmother and both of her parents were born and raised in Edinburgh, but again 2 of her grandparents, her Dad's folks George McLaren Jr. and Helen/Ellen Marshall, were born in Perthshire. Her Dad's Mom's folks, Joseph Marshall/Marshal and Margaret Chalmers, were married in Auchtergaven aka Bankfoot, a town north of Perth (Margaret's hometown) and lived as newlyweds in Methven, a town only 6-8 clicks west of Perth (Joseph's hometown evidently) in the mid-1820s, but were back living in Bankfoot 15 yr.s later. youtu.be/1S30LCwC6GY?si=WlB0G9vi1xpvINCC While Margaret was raised in that town, she was born in Ireland to a James Chalmers and an Agnes Cameron, and was 3 or 4 years of age when her young family moved to Bankfoot in 1802 or 1803. But an extant baptismal record for a James sired by a David Chalmers (from Bankfoot) and a Margaret Rorey/Rory (from 'Little Dunkeld' youtube.com/shorts/lF9_mipSUVg?si=rvvPQt2hb234gBIE where Niel Gow is buried www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GEcRirHlqE&list=RD3GEcRirHlq... ) in 1771 in Bankfoot (specifically 'Coltrannie', the site of a farm on the outskirts of town and of a tower named Coldrayny or Koldrayny in the 16th cent. www.stravaiging.com/history/castle/coltrannie/ ) seems to be a match for her father. (It's an exact match for his age per his tombstone; he named his first son David; and Chalmers were in abundance in Bankfoot in the 1770s, incl. another James born in 1775. I haven't found any Chalmers in the Irish records, but which are as patchy as they are following the fire in the archives in Dublin in 1922. [Baptisms and marriages of Presbyterians were only recognized in Ireland if performed by a minister of the 'Church of Ireland' until as late as the mid-19th cent. - !] "There were 81 with [that] surname in Ireland in 1911" according to barrygriffin.com.) If the baptismal record's a match (and I think it is), James had travelled to Ireland (to find work? or a wife? see below) where he likely met and married great x 4 grandma Agnes Cameron, sired Margaret and 2 of her sisters there, and then moved his family back to his home in Bankfoot where he and Agnes sired 9 more kids. Cameron is a Scots surname ("There were 860 with [that] surname in Ireland in 1911" per barrygriffin.com), Margaret's parents were Presbyterian and skilled workers in the linen-weaving industry, which in Ireland in @ 1800 was based in 3 co.s in Ulster, Scots-Irish 'plantation country', and 2 contiguous co.s to the south and west, and so it's likely the young Chalmers family were living in Co. Antrim or Down before they moved to Bankfoot. It follows that if Agnes Cameron was Irish, and again it's likely she was, she was almost certainly 'Scots-Irish'.
- My grandmother said that her paternal grandmother Helen/Ellen Marshall was Irish in response to questions and in a tone of admission in a discussion at the table with my Mom in our home in the late 80s. She said her mother "didn't like her mother-in-law because she was Irish", to paraphrase. (She didn't say much about the Irish in Edinburgh, just enough to give the impression that they had a poor reputation as impoverished people who would beg for $. "Irish immigrants were frequently blamed [in early 20th cent. Scotland] for social problems like overcrowding, disease, crime, and drunkenness, even though these issues stemmed from the poverty and poor housing conditions they were forced to endure." [Google A.I.] I'm very proud of my Irish roots on my Dad's side, myself.) My grandmother was honest (e.g., she was candid about her grandmother's death from a tapeworm infection), and had told this to my Mom years earlier evidently. (Mom said that the Scots and Irish are "really the same people, you know".) But she was wrong on two counts. 1. Again, the records reveal that her grandmother was born and raised in Perthshire; rather, it was HER mother Margaret who was born, but not raised, in Ireland, and it seems it was Margaret's mother Agnes who was Irish or 'Scots-Irish' while, again, Margaret's father James was Scots. If so, my grandmother's tree was 1/16th Irish or 'Scots-Irish'. (It's also possible, but much less likely, that Agnes was Scots and married James somewhere in Scotland [she didn't hail from Bankfoot] before moving with him to Ireland to start their young family. James would've done well to travel to Ulster to look for a wife where he would've been a catch in the 1790s for any young Scots-Irish woman with an interest in emigrating. The Scots-Irish experienced economic hardship then, and Presbyterians were subject to religious discrimination in Ulster [c/o the 'Popery Act' of 1704], but not in Scotland [of course].) And 2. Her mother wouldn't have known her mother-in-law in any event as all my grandmother's grandparents had died before her parents were married. The kernel of truth in this might be that my grandmother heard her mother tease her father or gossip about his mother's Irish roots without knowing much about them, or my grandmother might have misapprehended her mother's information. My Uncle Mac believed that the McLaren clan was Gaelic in origin (i.e. from Dal Riata, SW Scotland and considered [then] to have 6th cent. roots in Ireland), while the MacGregors had (the more indigenous) Pictish roots, which might've been a point of pride for my great grandmother, whether or not it's true. And it's common for a parent to promote a sense of pride in their own heritage relative to that of their spouse in the ongoing competition for filial love, which we might consider to be a mild form of 'parental alienation' today (if that's not being unkind to my great grandmother). It's likely my great grandmother would've heard of her husband's great grandmother Agnes Cameron, for his mother Ellen, Agnes' granddaughter, had been taken in by her by the age of 12 and was living with her and 3 of her own daughters in Bankfoot while Agnes was a widow of 60 and continued to work as a 'Linen yard wind', and while Ellen's 2 elder and 4 younger siblings continued to live with her parents (which raises questions). I wonder if Agnes and her daughters (25, 20 and 20) might've been better able to support Ellen than Ellen's parents, whose hands were full with their 6 other kids. But Ellen was working as a 'Linen yard wind' then too (at 12!). Hmmm. I strongly suspect that my great aunt Agnes, my grandmother's eldest sister, was named after her father's hospitable Scots-Irish great grandmother. All the puzzle-pieces fit if so. (Btw, I think it was in that same discussion at the table that my grandmother recalled seeing Chinese women with their tiny bound feet down at the docks in Leith when she was a girl.)
- Great x 3 grandma Margaret's (much) younger sister Helen's middle name was Wyllie, for James Wylie I think who inherited the Airleywright Estate in Auchtergaven in 1806, "created feus in the villages of Bankfoot and Waterloo and offered them to [those farmers or crofters] dispossessed" by his clearances. He was probably the family's landlord. roysofauchtergaven.blogspot.com/ His son Thomas Wylie developed the 'Airleywright Linen Works' in @ 1840 at 'Graham court' in Bankfoot, a town known for its textiles heritage and its once-thriving artisan sector in which this family seems to have prospered. They lived in the 'Airleywright' neighbourhood for a time where, again, Margaret and her mother Agnes worked in the mill as 'Linen yard winds'. The Chalmers erected a large family tombstone in the kirkyard at Bankfoot (covered in 19 names over 3 or 4 generations), the only one I know of that remains standing in Scotland for any of my ancestors outside Edinburgh.
- Again it's evident that my great x 3 granddad Joseph Marshall/Marshal (Mom's Mom's Dad's Mom's Dad), a stone-mason, hailed from Perthshire too. The only candidate extant for his baptism in Perthshire's records took place for the son of a James Marshal "at Ardetie" (Ardittie per Google A.I.) in 1792 in the Parish of Methven (the site of 'the Battle of Methven' in 1306 at which Robert the Bruce was ambushed youtu.be/bhwlPToqQ_4?si=nKVNwCs4IoogVkMC youtu.be/xeM_yn7JzJc?si=38MdXIyYKEWdIhPt ), @ 3 clicks NW of Methven as the crow flies, just south of the River Almond maps.nls.uk/view/216587020 , and where he and Margaret sired 2 kids as newlyweds in the 1820s. When their eldest child, Robert, was baptized, Joseph was at or of the "Lint Mill Ardittie" (so it's an excellent bet that the baptismal record for Joseph "at Ardetie" is a match for my great x 3 grandfather). The only candidate for a James Marshall baptized in Methven parish /b/ 1735 and 1777 per extant records was sired by a James Sr. in 1770 in Cloag. ("Cloag Farm Cottages [tourist accommodations] lie just north of the village of Methven" today. www.insiderscotland.com/cloag-farm-cottages-perth/ ) The only marriage record extant for a James Marshal/Marshall in Methven before 1792 is to a Janet Alison in 1778 (although no baptism records are extant in that parish for candidates for other children sired by that couple before 1804 - ?).
McLAREN and PEDDIE (and possibly NICOL / NICOLSONE)
Update - Jan. '26: I've made quite a discovery (I think) and have a tale to tell. I'll rewrite and delete much of the lengthy write-up that follows as a result /b/ this sentence and the paragraph under the heading 'Whittet - Mackie" in caps.:
- The name Clunie or Cluny, that of a town in Perthshire (sp. Clunie), and which appears at points along both the Tay (sp. Cluny) and Tummel rivers, features in my family history as my great uncle Mac maintained that his grandfather George McLaren, a tanner, 'machine beltmaker', and allegedly the manager of a tannery in Edinburgh, was the son of "the miller of Clunie", who moved to the nation's capital as a young man in the 1840s or '50s to find work. I spent (only) a day in the archives in Edinburgh this trip (a few days after I took this photo) to research my grandmother's Scots roots, but focused on my great grandmother's side of my tree (since proven to be more opaque than my great grandfather's). I succumbed to the temptation to dive down the online genealogy-research rabbit-hole some years ago and quickly found my great grandfather's official death record dating from Feb., 1889, and a census record and official birth records for some of his kids which indicate that he was born in 1827 or '28 in the parish of Logierait, rather than Clunie. His death record indicates that he passed away at age 61 at his home at '18 the Pleasance', Edinburgh, that he was a "Machine Beltmaker", the son of 'George McLaren [Sr.]', "Farm servant" and 'Jane Graham', and, incorrectly, the spouse of 'Helen Robertson'. (Again, my great great grandmother's name was 'Helen Marshall'.) She passed away at the same address > 3 1/2 years later at the age of 63. Their son-in-law David Currie signed both death records as "Informant" (with the same signature), ample proof that the former record pertains to my great great grandfather notwithstanding the error. But the error brings the accuracy of the names listed for George's parents into some question. I now consider it to be a red flag.
- It's possible (if unlikely) that David Currie forgot his mother-in-law's maiden surname and made it up at the time the record was prepared (esp. if he would've been required to return home to make embarrassing inquiries, and then return to the office to make a second report), and, if so, it's unlikely he knew the names of George's folks. (In that case, he took pains to be informed when he reattended for his mother-in-law in 1892, whose record is accurate.) Did the clerk or official get his records mixed up when entering info., or was he due down at the pub and took liberties seeing as no-one checks these things anyway (apart from a descendant 136 yr.s later)? Noting that the name 'Helen' is correct, I thought it's more likely that the clerk or official made only one error with the one surname, but I've spent much time and treasure in a fruitless search for any other record that links any candidate for a George Sr. to a Jane or Janet Graham, and for any re my great great grandfather that predates 1853 (his marriage record). I've found no baptism record for George or any siblings, NO census records (which isn't unusual, many records didn't survive) ... UNLESS my great great grandfather was sired in 1827 in Logierait parish (again per the 1881 census and his childrens' bapt. records) by parents with different names than those indicated on his death record, who lived in Edradynate, which I've just learned (in Jan. '26) was the location of a place once named the "Miltown of Cluny" (! Bingo? - see below). I thought I'd research this mysterious George McLaren of Edradynate, who would've generated immediate interest if not for the death record, and the results, impressively coincidental details or much consistent evidence, have led to a course correction. (I'll preserve an edited [abbreviated] review of the relatively slight evidence and the leads I found and followed at length re any George Sr. and Jane/Janet Graham further below.):
- George McLaren was a relatively rare name in Scotland in the 1820s, with only 2 Georges baptized /b/ 1825 and 1831 in extant records (although 7 born in that period appear in the census of 1851, see below [I expect Scots to prefer almost any name for a boy over George, see my write-up for the photo of the Dicks in Clunie]), and only 1 in Perthshire (or 2, incl. a MAC-Laren in Dull [see the next paragraph below) which, again, dates to 1827 in Logierait parish - a "Farmer" and the son of a Charles McLaren in "Balinald of Edradyanate" and "his own [former] servant maid Christian Peddie [per their marriage record of 1822], daughter to a Donald Peddie in Smithy Haugh near the Bridge of Almond", likely the ancient, single-arch bridge at Millhaugh, still standing today in or next to Ardittie (coincidentally the home of Joseph Marshall, see above). An old map on "The McKercher Index" online reveals that Edradynate ('Eadar Dhà Dhoimhnid', "Between two deep places") once included the "Miltown of Cluny" by a stream or creek (SE and across a field from the Derculich burn, parallel) which descends to the Tay from a site just a few 100 m.s NW of it, that of the 'Beinn Eagagach Hydro Scheme' today (per Google maps). www.mckercher.org/Places?locale=Weem#:~:text=Farms%20nort... The "'Miltown of Cluny' ... is a small place name or settlement located within the Edradynate Estate area, near the village of Strathtay [see below] ... likely historically associated with a mill." (Google A.I.) The map in the link also reveals a site named 'Balnald' 200-300 m.s, a hop, skip and a jump, NW of the "Miltown". The 'Cluny House Gardens' nearby is a tourist attraction today. Charles and his family moved @ 10 clicks east to a croft in Killechangie sometime /b/ 1827 and 1832.
- Again, 7 George McLarens born /b/ 1825 and 1831 (no MACLarens) are accounted for across Scotland in the 1851 census, 4 in Perthshire, but the only potential match for my great great grandfather (per the census) is a 23 yr. old 'Ag Lab Ploughman' who hailed from Logierait, living in a bothy and working on a farm in East Dowald, Crieff for an Alexander McLaren, 47 going on 48, a farmer of 133 acres "emp [employing] 5 lab", living with his wife (35), sister-in-law, his 4 children and 2 servants, all (except the eldest servant) born in Logierait parish, incl. the 3 yr. old. I assume that Alexander was this George's relatively wealthy cousin although I haven't found a connection in the records. For what it might be worth Alexander and his wife lived in the 'Brae of Pitcastle', Strathtay (Logierait parish) when their children were born, @ 2 km.s downriver and NE of Edradynate. (Logierait parish is @ 61 square miles in area.) Alexander was born in 1803 in "Dalnesudaren" (?) to John McLaren and Elizabeth Scott, who were close in age per a census and married in Logierait in 1802. Elizabeth passed away a widow at 76 in 1857 in the "Milton of Pitcastle".
- My grandmother once mentioned that surnames with the prefix 'Mc' were of ancient Irish (i.e. Gaelic) descent, while Macs were Scots (i.e. Pictish?). I've read this is untrue, but I wonder if it might apply to some degree to McLarens and MacLarens. I note an almost surprising consistency in the spelling of the surname in the records and wonder if this coincides with some debate re the origins of the clan, either with the 13th cent. abbot of Actow in Balquhidder (the clan seat), or with Lorn, son of Erc, in Argyll in 503. My great uncle and his son Jim, who named his home in Charsfield, Suffolk 'Dalriada', were firmly in the latter camp. www.flickr.com/photos/97924400@N00/9601774507 Another rabbit-hole for later.
- At least 8 Charles McLarens were baptized in Perthshire /b/ 1766 and 1812, 3 in Logierait in the 1790s. (McLarens were in abundance in the parish then.) Generations of farmers tend to stay put, but none of the 3 were in Edradynate. 1 was sired by Duncan McLaren and Margaret Ramsay (from 'Little Dunkeld') "in [a] Croft of Pitcastle" (the closest of the 3 in proximity) in 1791; the 2nd by Donald McLaren (of Dowally) and Elspeth Butter (from 'Balnamuire' or 'Little Dunkeld' [?]) in "the Tom [hillock or knoll] of Kilmorich" (1 1/2 clicks SE of the Tummel-Tay confluence) in 1794, whose brother was born in the "Milntown of Pitnacree" (@ 2 km.s east of Pitcastle); and the 3rd by Charles McLaren Sr. and 'Emly' Campbell (sic, Emilia, a former "servant to Cap. Grant of Kinnaird" per her marriage record, 1794) in the "Milntown of Pitnacree" in 1796. (Pitnacree is best known today for an eponymous fiddle tune, 'The Pitnacree Ferryman'.: youtu.be/aiFWk4OYzNA?si=UgYcf9GPKOxryAgq ) Charles Sr. was "AT the Miln of Pitnacree" (emphasis added) per his marriage record and another baptismal record. A Miln? I asked Google A.I. "Is miln an old word for mill?" Answer: Why "Yes, miln (often spelled milne or myln) is an old term for a mill. It derives from Old English (mylen) and is frequently found in Middle English, particularly in Scottish contexts, to describe a [mill]." (Here's a site re a derelict, 19th cent. mill in Pitnacree.: www.buildingsatrisk.org.uk/details/905537 )
- More re the roots of the 3 Charles: 1. the best candidate for Duncan McLaren of Pitcastle (the only Duncan baptized in Logierait /b/ 1735 and 1764) is the son of Robert McLaren and Janet McLaren in "Wester Aberfeldie", born in 1755. 2. Donald (of Dowally) was sired by Patrick McLaren and Isoball/Isball Fleeming in 1760 in the "Mains [Scots for domain] of Killmorich". 3. At least 5 Charles McLarens were baptized in Perthshire /b/ 1750 and 1780, but only 1 in Logierait in 1765, the son of Alexander McLaren (in Logierait) and Kathrine McDonald (in Weem parish [Menzies territory], where newlywed couples are recorded in the registry as "booked & c.". Lol). The family lived for a spell @ 1770 at "the Miln of Balyoukan" (Ballyoukan today, on the A9, 5 km.s NW of Logierait). While I believe that one of the 3 Charles born in Logierait in the 1790s settled at Edradynate where he sired a George McLaren in 1827 (if the relevant record is extant), I can't (yet) say which.
- The 'miltown of Cluny' at Edradynate and the 'milntown of Pitnacree' are tiny places. It's likely that any adult male inhabitant of the mil/miln-towns worked at the mill, and men who work at mills are often referred to as millers. Charles of the 'Balinald of Edradynate' was a "farmer" who lived @ 200 m.s from an active mill, but a miller can farm and a farmer can mill (e.g. a man named Robertson was a "Meal miller and farmer" in 'Milton of Pitcastle' in 1858 per the death record of his wife Catherine McLaren), the moreso if he was raised "at [a] miln" or in a small "milntown".
- In any event, the coincidence that my great Uncle Mac claimed that his grandfather was the son of the 'Miller of Cluny', and that the ONLY candidate in extant baptism and census records for someone born in Logierait parish of his age and with his name is the son of a man who lived @ 200-300 m.s from a mill in a "Miltown of Cluny" (and again that I've found no trace of a George McLaren sired by a George Sr. and a Jane/Janet Graham per his death record), leads me to believe that I've just found my great great grandfather George McLaren in the records, the son of Charles McLaren and Christian Peddie of Edradynate, Logierait parish. This is encouraging and could be something of a vindication of my great uncle Mac and his father and grandfather, as I've assumed for some years now that one of them had conflated the fact that George was raised near the site of a mill (at the confluence of the Tay and Tummel in Logierait) with his father's trade or profession (although the reference to Logierait in the records is to the parish, not the village), or that someone improved on the facts, elevating George's father from a "Farm servant" (per George's death record) to a less-lowly miller. (I shouldn't speculate that the profession of miller is any more prestigious than that of "farm servant" or "ag. lab.", but that might help to explain the disconnect if so. But again Charles is a "Farmer" per his marriage record.) Accuracy and honesty seem to have prevailed over the generations after all. That said, I wonder if Mac might have made a mistake on another point. He recounted that his grandfather George was the manager of a tannery in Edinburgh in which there was a fire, that George became wet while dousing the flames, suffered exposure and soon died of pneumonia. His death record however specifies that he died at 61 of "pulmonalis". Coincidentally (or not?) George's son's father-in-law, Robert Greig (Mac's other grandfather), a "boot-closer" (who worked in a factory or workshop I assume), died at @ age 58 of "acute pneumonia" in 1887. (All four of my grandmother's parents died fairly young, before her parents married.)
- Again, Christian Peddie was Charles McLaren's "own servant maid, being Daughter to Donald Peddie in Smithy Haugh [Millhaugh I think] near the Bridge of Almond" when Charles proposed in 1822 according to their unusually informative marriage record. Of 12 records extant for the baptism of a Christian Peddie/Peddy/Pedy in Scotland /b/ 1775 and 1808 none were for the daughter of a Donald. One sired in 1805 by a "Joseph Pedy" of 'Bridge-end' in the parish of Methven (which includes Millhaugh) and Isobel Allen of Moneydie (per their marriage record of 1802) is likely a cousin. (Sadly, she died in 1883 in a "poorhouse" in Forfar.) But the official death record for "Christina McLaren, widow of Charles McLaren, Farmer" who died at "52" (nope, 57 per the more reliable census of 1861 [Christian would've married at 12 otherwise]) of "apoplexy" (stroke) at 25 Newhall st., Bridgeton, Glasgow in 1862, lists her parents as James Peddie, "Brewery Labourer" and Janet, M.S. "unknown". The informant, her daughter Helen, was working as a "dress maker" the year before at age 24 while living with "Christina", 56, a widow, "formerly [a] Dairymaid" and Helen's sister Jane, 32 and Jane's husband James Cameron, "Block cutter", at 8 Scott st., Calton parish, Glasgow. Helen's and Jane's place of birth is listed as Logierait and Christina's is "Tippermuir", Perthshire (Tibbermore today, @ 3 clicks SE of Methven, site of the Battle of Tippermuir in 1644). Both the death record and the census seem to be a match for George McLaren of Edradynate's mother and sister Helen as Charles and Christian sired a Helen in May, 1835 (in a "Croft of Killechangie"). (No bapt. record is extant for a sister Jane born in 1828-'29 [although records are extant for 6 siblings], but Jane's marriage record confirms that her parents were Charles McLaren and Christina Peddie.)
- A James Peddie and a Janet Peddie (her M.S.), "both in [the] parish" of Moneydie, married in 1785 and sired at least 6 kids /b/ 1787 and 1801 in Tullymoran (in the parish of Logiealmond today), only a km. or 2 west of Millhaugh according to mapcarta.com. (!): mapcarta.com/W371751390?__cf_chl_tk=CiHStq3onl___I0ncn2de... They're the best candidates in extant records for Christian's parents, although Tullymoran (and Millhaugh) are @ 7-8 km.s NW of Tibbermore, and 6 baptism records are extant for James and Janet's children (up to 1801) but none for Christian (born in @ 1805), and James is referred to as a "Farmer" in several of those baptism records and in 4 of his childrens' death records, never as a "Brewery labourer" as in Christian's death record. That said, the family might have moved to "Tippermuir" after 1801 (which might explain why Christian's bapt. record is missing) and James or Donald Peddie (whatever name he went by) might have moved back to Millhaugh or Tullymoran before 1822. And if Christian's mother Janet was also a Peddie, that might explain why her M.S. is "unknown" on her death record. ("I dunno, I only ever knew her as 'Grandma Peddie'.") But the proximity of Tullymoran on the Almond river to "the bridge of Almond" is an impressive coincidence, if that's what it is. (It's almost strange that all 4 of the siblings with official death records died single, but had greater longevity than most of my Mom's ancestors, passing away /b/ age 70 and 87.)
- At least 36 baptisms of a James Peddie, Pedie or Peddy were performed /b/ 1740 and 1770 in Scotland, 11 w/in 5 km.s of Tullymoran and Millhaugh. 4 of 6 in Moneydie are the best candidates in light of their proximity to Tullymoran/Millhaugh and their age.: 1. the son of James Peddie Sr. and Margaret Nicol in "Chappel Hill", @ 1.5 km.s NE of the bridge in 1763; 2. the son of William Peddie and Aemilia Wild in Shannoch "near Tullimoran" in 1761 (24 in 1785) (No marriage record is extant for this couple, nor bapt. records for other offspring); and 1 or 2 IN Tullymoran: 3. the son of William Peddie and Jean France, "both in [Moneydie] parish", in 1766 (19 in 1785) in "Tombrandy", in Harrietfield (in or next to Tullymoran) today (this James had 7 siblings, the youngest born in 1786 in "Tombrandy"); and 4. the son of James Peddie Sr. and Janet Robertson "in Tullymorran" in 1760 (25 in 1785). James and Janet were "both in" Moneydie when they married in 1756 and had a 2nd son in Tullymoran in 1762. The James of "Chappel Hill" is an unlikely candidate (see below) which leaves 3 in or near Tullymoran.
- There's no trace of an Aemilia/Emilia/Amilia Wild in the records apart from her son's bapt. record. At least 29 infants named William Peddie/Peddy/Pedie/Pedy were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1715 and 1750, 23 in Perthshire, 11 in Moneydie alone (!). At least 3 infants named Jean France were baptized in Scotland /b/ 1725 and 1750, none in Perthshire, 2 in Clackmannan, 10-15 km.s west of Stirling, both sired by a William France and Janet Angus in 1738 and 1744. (I assume the elder child passed away.) At

The Pike, in Long Beach is nothing like it used to be. Removed to the East but remaining until July 2010 from the original was the roof of the Looff, the carousel that graced the entrance nearby the Cyclone Racer roller coaster, was in temporary storage where once was Eddie's diner. South of Ocean Blvd. marked the Eastern beginning of "The Pike" The 'Fun Zone' continued East and West from where the telephone pole stands past snack shops, shooting galleries, dark rides, souvenir photographers, more penny arcades, and many shops of souvenir trinkets and clothing - even bikinis. Just barely visible in the sky on the left is the arc of the Ferris Wheel on what today is called The Pike.

And this is the necklace that put me way, way over budget for June. I’ve actually been looking for chandelier crystals at thrift stores and flea markets to make something similar. Finding this necklace was much easier and cheaper than making my own…and probably a little lighter. (The crystals are not glass.)
Cardigan, Old Navy. Dress, I Heart Ronson. Belt, thrifted. Necklace, Serket Jewelry. Bag, Express. Shoes, Van Eli (thrifted). Sunnies, Deb.
This necklace is terribly glamorous, so I tempered the fanciness with a casual cardigan. Actually, this cardigan is getting a little too casual for work. It has developed some terrible pilling in the armpit. I do my best not to wave my arms around at the office.

The Willows at Willow Grove Day Camp is a camp for 3 and 4 year old children. This unique camp experience offers your child an early opportunity to learn and socialize with children their own age.
During the first week of camp, lots of fun was had as the children and counselors got to know each other. “Sun and Surf” was our first week theme. The children really enjoyed decorating their bucket and shovel memo pads during Arts and Crafts. Along with this activity, the Polar Bears and Penguins enthusiastically participated in Nature, Gymnastics, Dance, Tennis and Soccer. We are looking forward to the next seven weeks of fun-filled activities.
Willow Grove Day Camp provides summer fun for kids who live in Willow Grove, Abington, Blue Bell, Hatboro, Horsham, Huntingdon Valley, Lafayette Hill, Philadelphia, Plymouth Meeting, Southampton and the surrounding areas.

"Madhubani painting or Mithila Painting is a style of Indian painting, practiced in the Mithila region of Bihar state, India.
[edit] Origins
The origins of Madhubani painting or Mithila Painting are shrouded in antiquity. Tradition states that this style of painting originated at the time of the Ramayana, when King Janak commissioned artists to do paintings at the time of marriage of his daughter, Sita, to Lord Ram.
Madhubani painting has been done traditionally by the women of villages around the present town of Madhubani (the literal meaning of which is forests of honey) and other areas of Mithila. The painting was traditionally done on freshly plastered mud wall of huts, but now it is also done on cloth, hand-made paper and canvas.
As Madhubani painting has remained confined to a compact geographical area and the skills have been passed on through centuries, the content and the style have largely remained the same. Madhubani paintings also use two dimensional imagery, and the colors used are derived from plants. Ochre and lampblack are also used for reddish brown and black respectively.
Madhubani paintings mostly depict nature and Hindu religious motifs, and the themes generally revolve around Hindu deities like Krishna, Ram, Shiva, Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati. Natural objects like the sun, the moon, and religious plants like tulsi are also widely painted, along with scenes from the royal court and social events like weddings. Generally no space is left empty; the gaps are filled by paintings of flowers, animals, birds, and even geometric designs. objects depicted in the walls of kohabar ghar (where newly wed couple see each other in the first night) are symbols of sexual pleasure and procreation.
Traditionally, painting was one of the skills that was passed down from generation to generation in the families of the Mithila Region, mainly by women. The painting was usually done on walls during festivals, religious events, and other milestones of the life-cycle such as birth, Upanayanam (Sacred thread ceremony), and marriage.""

Os Campos da região Sul do Brasil são denominados como “pampa”, termo de origem indígena para “região plana”. Esta denominação, no entanto, corresponde somente a um dos tipos de campo, mais encontrado ao sul do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, atingindo o Uruguai e a Argentina.
Outros tipos conhecidos como campos do alto da serra são encontrados em áreas de transição com o domínio de araucárias. Em outras áreas encontram-se, ainda, campos de fisionomia semelhantes à savana. Os campos, em geral, parecem ser formações edáficas (do próprio solo) e não climáticas. A pressão do pastoreio e a prática do fogo não permitem o estabelecimento da vegetação arbustiva, como se verifica em vários trechos da área de distribuição dos Campos do Sul.
A região geomorfológica do planalto de Campanha, a maior extensão de campos do Rio Grande do Sul, é a porção mais avançada para oeste e para o sul do domínio morfoestrutural das bacias e coberturas sedimentares. Nas áreas de contato com o arenito botucatu, ocorrem os solos podzólicos vermelho-escuros, principalmente a sudoeste de Quaraí e a sul e sudeste de Alegrete, onde se constata o fenômeno da desertificação. O solo, em geral, de baixa fertilidade natural e bastante suscetível à erosão.
À primeira vista, a vegetação campestre mostra uma aparente uniformidade, apresentando nos topos mais planos um tapete herbáceo baixo – de 60 cm a 1 m -, ralo e pobre em espécies, que se torna mais denso e rico nas encostas, predominando gramíneas, compostas e leguminosas; os gêneros mais comuns são: Stipa, Piptochaetium, Aristida, Melica, Briza. Sete gêneros de cactos e bromeliáceas apresentam espécies endêmicas da região. A mata aluvial apresenta inúmeras espécies arbóreas de interesse comercial.
Na Área de Proteção Ambiental do Rio Ibirapuitã, inserida neste bioma, ocorrem formações campestres e florestais de clima temperado, distintas de outras formações existentes no Brasil. Além disso, abriga 11 espécies de mamíferos raros ou ameaçados de extinção, ratos d’água, cevídeos e lobos, e 22 espécies de aves nesta mesma situação. Pelo menos uma espécie de peixe, cará (Gymnogeophagus sp., Família Cichlidae) é endêmica da bacia do rio Ibirapuitã.
O Pampa Gaúcho está situado no sul do Brasil, no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, na divisa com o Uruguai. O Pampa é uma região de clima temperado, com temperaturas médias de 18°C, formada por coxilhas onde se situam os campos de produção pecuária e as várzeas que se caracterizam por áreas baixas e úmidas. A região sul tem, na pecuária, uma tradição que se iniciou com a colonização do Brasil.
Os campos no RS ocupam uma área de aproximadamente 40% da área total do estado. O Pampa gaúcho da Campanha Meridional encontra-se dentro da área de maior proporção de campos naturais preservados do Brasil, sendo um dos ecossistemas mais importantes do mundo.
