Old Photograph Murray Place Street St Andrews Scotland


Old photograph of buildings on Murray Place in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. The surname Murray was first found in Moray, where the Clan founder, Freskin, received a grant of the lands of Strathbrock in 1100 AD. He was descended from the first Earl, and his grandson, William, married the heiress of the Bothwell Clan in Lanarkshire. His sons founded many other houses, including the Murrays of Tullibardine, who later became the Dukes of Atholl, and Chiefs of the Clan. Murray has appeared in many spellings, including; Murray, Murrey, Moray, Morey, Morrey, Morry, Murry, MacMhuirich in Gaelic, and many more.
