Tour Scotland short 4K Spring travel video clip, with Scottish bagpipes music, of a road trip drive on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Craigrothie, Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Craigrothie village was once a coaching stop on the route to Cupar and horses were changed here at the Change Inn. Robert Fleming Gourlay was born March 22, 1778 in Craigrothie in the Parish of Ceres. He received a Master of Arts degree from the University of St. Andrews and studied agriculture at the University of Edinburgh. In 1817, his wife inherited some land in the Niagara District of Upper Canada and he travelled there via New York City, expecting to return by the Fall. He returned to England and published A General Introduction to a Statistical Account of Upper Canada in 1822. In 1856, he returned to his property in Canada and ran unsuccessfully for a seat in Oxford in Canada West. He returned to Edinburgh, Scotland, and died there in 1863. 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. The date for astronomical spring is Sunday 20th March, ending on Tuesday 21st June, while by the meteorological calendar, spring will start on Tuesday 1st March.. @tourscotland #spring #music #drivingtrip #scotland #bagpipes #shortsvideo
