Download or read book Haunted Stirling written by David Kinnaird and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2010-11-08 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From heart-stopping accounts of apparitions, poltergeists and related supernatural phenomena, to first-hand encounters with phantoms and spirits, this collection of stories contains both new and well-known spooky tales from around Stirling. A whole chapter is dedicated to the mysterious goings-on at Stirling Castle, where cleaners in the King's Old Building claimed to have heard footsteps coming from the third floor — which hasn't existed since a fire in the nineteenth-century; while a 1930s photograph purports to capture the shadow of a phantom guardsman — possibly the same 'Highland Soldier' often reportedly mistaken by tourists for a castle guide. The town itself has no shortage of fascinating tales, including the story of the Old Town's most famous phantom, seventeenth-century merchant John 'Auld Staney Breeks' Cowane, whose spirit is said to inhabit his statue each Hogmanay. A playful ghost supposedly throws pots and pans around the kitchens of the Darnley Coffee House, while frequent power failures and mishaps in the Tolbooth Theatre — originally the eighteenth-century Burgh jail — are blamed upon the malicious spirit of the last man hanged, Alan Mair. Drawing on historical and contemporary sources, Haunted Stirling is guaranteed to intrigue and chill both believers and sceptics alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The McAllister family. Clifford McAllister father comes from a family who joined the Mormon Church in Ireland and emigrated to the Americas in the 19th Century. Descended from the Ancient Kings of Ireland from Tara Castle, they first moved to Alabama and later moved to Indiana where they became business people, teachers, doctors, attorneys and soldiers. Clifford's mother's family came from England to Virginia in the early 1700s and soon moved to Georgia, North Carolina and Alabama. Related to Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of England, they descend from the Merovingians Kings of Normandy, Welsh Kings, William The Conqueror, Robert de Bruce of Scotland and the Sea-Kings of Norway. A compilation of everything that has been done by other members of the family, there is still a lot of research to be done, and lots to learn about individuals in this amazing genealogy. Descended from powerful, enigmatic leaders of the past, they have paved the way for our future.
