Tour Scotland 4K late Summer early Autumn travel video of a road trip drive, with Scottish music, on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to St Madoes in Carse and Gowrie, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. This parish is supposed to have derived its name from Saint Modoc. There are no visible remains of the medieval parish church of St Madoes. The present church was built in 1798, replacing a building apparently erected in 1610, and was extensively repaired or rebuilt in 1676. In October 1591 Alexander Lindsay was ordained as minister of St Madoes church in Perthshire. He was elected Constant Moderator in 1606 but served only one year as he was chosen as to be Bishop of Dunkeld on 21 December 1607. On 27 January 1624, he was admitted to the Scottish Privy Council. He assisted in the coronation of King Charles I in 1633. He was hostile to the introduction of the Book of Common Prayer in 1637 and, contrary to royal policy, favoured a reduced role for bishops. The following year he submitted to the Covenanters and was deprived of his office as Bishop on 24 December 1638. He temporarily lost his ministry of St Madoes but was reinstated in January 1639 having repented publicly at Kilspindie Church. He died in October 1639. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. When driving on Scottish roads in Scotland slow down and enjoy the trip. According to the meteorological calendar, the first day of Autumn or Fall always falls on September 1.
