Discover Kintyre....Discover Yourself

Kintyre is a peninsula in Western Scotland, in the Southwest of Argyll and Bute. The peninsula stretches about 30 miles (48 km), from the Mull of Kintyre in the South to East Loch Tarbert in the North. The area immediately north of Kintyre is known as Knapdale.
Kintyre is long and narrow, at no point more than 11 miles (18 km) from West coast to East coast, and is less than two miles wide where it connects to Knapdale. The east side of the Kintyre Peninsula is bounded by Kilbrannan Sound, with a number of coastal peaks such as Torr Mor. The central spine of the peninsula is mostly hilly moorland.
The principal town of the area is Campbeltown which has been a Royal Burgh since the mid-18th century. The area's economy has long relied on fishing and farming, although Campbeltown has a reputation as a producer of some of the world's finest whisky.

My ancestor left South End in 1602. It must have broken his heart to leave such a beautiful place.
