Old Photograph Humbie Scotland

Old photograph of Humbie, 10 miles South West of Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland. Humbie as we know it today was formed as the result of the union between Keith Marischal and Keith Hundeby in 1618. Originally, Humbie formed part of the Barony of Keith, and was anciently known as Keith Hundeby. The lands were held by Simon Fraser of Keith in the reign of David I. A charter signed by Fraser in 1191 is said to be the first mention of the Anglo-Norman Frasers and the Barony in extant records.
