Old photograph of Fyvie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. A folk song The Bonnie Lass o' Fyvie tells of a captain of dragoons who dies for the love of a Fyvie girl. Another folk song, Andrew Lammie, tells of the doomed love of a local miller's daughter, Annie, for Lord Fyvie's trumpeter. This may be a historical story; the young woman's grave is said to be in Fyvie churchyard.
