Download or read book The People of Dundee and Angus at Home and Abroad 1800 1850 written by David Dobson and published by Clearfield. This book was released on 2022-01-21 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book identifies residents in the adjacent counties of Dundee and Angus, as well as emigrants from there, between 1800 and 1850. Dundee and Angus now form distinct Scottish administrative units but were formerly a single district known as Forfarshire. The main towns were Brechin, Forfar, and Kirriemuir in Strathmore, with Dundee, Broughty Ferry, Monifieth, Arbroath, and Montrose along the coast. From the medieval period to the Victorian era Forfar was the administrative center of Angus or Forfarshire, while Dundee, still within Angus, was fast becoming the main industrial and port city. By the late 19th century Dundee had become one of the biggest cities in Scotland. The information in this book is derived from a wide range of sources, such as count records, contemporary newspapers and journals, monumental inscriptions, and documents found in archives. The entries bring together emigrants, their destinations--especially in North America, the West Indies, and Australasia--with their kin who remained in Scotland.

Download or read book Stirling and Central Scotland written by John Gifford and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 948 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stirling and Central Scotland straddles the divisions between Highland and Lowland, rural and industrial Scotland. Castles range from Stirling, its fortifications enclosing a Renaissance palace of international significance, to the strongholds of medieval magnates at Doune, Blackness and Castle Campbell, from tower houses at Clackmannan and Alloa to the Georgian barracks complex of Dumbarton. Many buildings fully explained for the first time include Kinneil House, which developed from tower, to palace of the Regent of Scotland to Restoration showhouse; and the huge spread of Callendar House, aggrandized over four centuries with many changes of dress. Other major houses include Bannockburn House, with its superb plasterwork, and the eighteenth century mansions of Strathleven House, Touch House and Robert Adam's castellated villa of Airthrey Castle. Dunblane Cathedral and Stirling's Church of the Holy Rude magnificently represent medieval churches while post-Reformation successors range from the rural simplicity of Baldernock to the sumptuously fitted Alloa West Church. The buildings of the many towns and picturesque villages are just as varied, from Stirling's medieval Old Town, to the Victorian townscapes of Alloa and Falkirk, the prosperous villadom of Bearsden and Lenzie, and the redevelopment of blitzed Clydebank. Industrial memories of the collieries, mills, shipyards and ironworks are also recalled, not least by the contrast between the workers' housing and the industrialists' mansions. Notable twentieth century buildings include the boomerang-shaped Bannockburn High School, the University of Stirling's lakeside campus and the evocative development of Lomond Shores while the twenty-first century has opened with construction of the Millennium Wheel at Falkirk.

Download or read book Old Dundee written by Eric Eunson and published by Stenlake Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This spectacular book combines a wonderful collection of images of Dundee with informative captions that really bring them to life. All corners of the city are covered, with many landmarks seen here intact before they were swept away during the various redevelopment schemes of the twentieth century. The Tay ferries are featured, as of course is an outline of Dundee's more general maritime history, including whaling. As you would expect, jute, jam and journalism are covered, but for many ordinary Dundonians the real interest will be in the views of their part of the city showing familiar streets and shops prior to redevelopment. Bill Early's wonderful collection of postcards of the city forms the bulk of the material illustrated, while he and Eric Eunson have collaborated to produce a narrative that will be of interest to both Dundonians and visitors to the city.
