Old Photographs Huntly Aberdeenshire Scotland

Tour Scotland wee video of photographs of Huntly, Aberdeenshire. John Perie VC was born in 1831 in Huntly. he was a Scottish recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces. He died on 17 September 1874. Huntly was the home town of the writer George MacDonald born 1824, died 1905. Ian Cameron, father of British Prime Minister, David Cameron, was from Glass, Huntly; he was born at Blairmore House. I hope these photographs are of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.

My great grandmother and great grandfather were from there. There son, my grandfather, was born in Canada right after they moved. I haven’t been lucky enough to go back yet but it’s great to see where my blood comes from.
