Tour Scotland 4K short travel video clip of early Autumn trees and traffic on Stormont Road on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. I live on this road. The road is named after Sir David Murray, first Viscount Stormont, who was cup bearer to King James VI. Having been instrumental in saving the life of his royal master. 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. Margaret Murray landed in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1773; Christopher Murray landed in Pictou, Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1773; Mary Murray landed in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1778; Morton Murray arrived in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1783; Barbara Murray who landed in Cape Fear, North Carolina, America, in 1737; Charles Murray landed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, America, in 1746; Garret Murray arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, America, in 1746; Elizabeth Murray landed in Boston, Massachusetts, America, in 1755; Archibald Murray, aged 17, arrived in New York, America, in 1755; Mary Murray, an English convict who was convicted in Middlesex, England for 7 years, was transported aboard the ship Canada in March 1810, arriving in New South Wales, Australia; Jane Murray, born 1775, aged 38, an Irish convict was convicted in Dublin, Ireland for 7 years, and transported aboard the ship Catherine on 8th December 1813, arriving in New South Wales, Australia; William Murray, aged 21, a labourer, arrived in Wellington, New Zealand aboard the ship Bengal Merchant in 1840; John Murray, aged 24, a ploughman, arrived in Wellington, New Zealand aboard the ship Blenheim in 1840. The medieval town of Scone, which grew up around the monastery and royal residence, was abandoned in the early 19th century when the residents were removed and a new palace was built on the site by the Earl of Mansfield. Hence the modern village of Scone, and the medieval village of Old Scone, can often be distinguished. Autumn leaf color or colour is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the Autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, orange, pink, magenta, blue and brown. The phenomenon is commonly called autumn colours or autumn foliage in British English and fall colors, fall foliage or simply foliage in American English. 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. Meteorological Autumn or Fall is different from standard and astronomical Autumn and begins September 1 and ends November 30. The equinox at which the sun approaches the Southern Hemisphere, marking the start of astronomical Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. The time of this occurrence is approximately September 22. @tourscotland @tourscotland #shorts #autumn
