Tour Scotland Autumn travel video of a walk to visit waterfalls on the River Braan on ancestry, genealogy, history visit to Highland Perthshire. The River Braan, Scottish Gaelic: Breamhainn, is a tributary of the River Tay in Scotland. Within the county of Perth and Kinross, it flows 11 miles eastwards from Loch Freuchie, near Amulree, and joins the River Tay near Dunkeld. The eminent Victorian English painter, Sir John Everett Millais, born 8 June 1829, died 13 August 1896, one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, stayed a cottage near the River Braan in the 1870’s when he visited Perthshire on a hunting and fishing trip and two of his landscape pictures The Sound of Many Waters and St Martin's Summer were inspire by the River Braan. Queen Victoria had also been enthused when she visited here in 1865 and wrote that the flow was most splendid and that swollen by rain, it came down with an immense volume of water, with a deafening noise. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
