Tour Scotland short 4K Winter video clip of a road trip drive, with Scottish bagpipes music, after overnight snow on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Balbeggie, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. At the end of the 18th Century, the land on which Balbeggie village was to take shape was owned by Andrew Murray of Murrayshall. It was an insignificant place on the Scone to Abernyte road and probably comprised only a few crofts and cottages. At the end of the 18th Century a new turnpike road from Perth was constructed by private subscription. John Inches was a weaver who was born in Lethendy parish in 1789. He was an established resident of Balbeggie by 1828, when he appeared as a procurator or advocate on behalf of John McGregor and his wife Mary Spence for the purchase of their land at Balbeggie Cottage. He remained a bachelor and probably lived in the same house, along with his 3 unmarried sisters, until his death in 1866. The Pictish clans of ancient Scotland were the ancestors of first people to use the name Inches. The name was found in one of several places named Inch in the counties of Angus and Perth. The surname Inches belongs to the category of habitation names, which are derived from pre-existing names for towns, villages, parishes, or farmsteads. 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. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February.
