Drummeddat was a croft which the laird Hugh Rose developed into his house Arabella. Balintrad has a pier on the Cromarty Firth!

Thanks Skoosh interesting information to have.  I assume the spelling you have is the correct one and not what I have seen on the register.  Regards Bronwen NZ

Same cocktail as mine Bronwen, Mackenzie, Ross & Munro, we must be related somewhere, through drink?

No not through drink, I am a Kahlua on the rocks person -not very Scottish.  Fascinating though do you live in that part of the world Skoosh?

My grandfathetr was born in Uddingston, my father just out of London but came to NZ as a 2 year old in 1919 to NZ.   I have a lot of family history in Ross & Cromarty, Glasgow and environs and a little in Edinburgh on my grandfather's side. My father was passionate about everything Scots.  He followed Scottish poetry (wrote a book in Lallans himself - he was a writer amongst other things) new the history, the poets the artists etc.
