was Principal of the University and Professor of Humanities. Her other

Mary Cook's father George Cook was Dean of the Thistle and Professor of Moral
Philosophy at St Andrews, as was his father John Cook, and her

Andrews.
Katherine Laurie's father Gilbert Laurie was twice Lord Provost of Edinburgh
and her great-grandfather Lord Cardross lived in North Carolina for a time in

Regarding my Coats Viyella address, it is probably better if you continue to
use msn. There was a problem with our cc:Mail system when the directory was
originally set up with my name spelled incorrectly but I have now received
mail so hope it is fixed. Is your preferred address Bigbird or Midnet?
I think you were asking for the postal address for The Clans and Families
Association for South Scotland; it is Mrs M.F.Elliott, Seven Oaks, School
Lane, Moffat, Dumfriesshire, DG10 9AX.
Thanks for McCallum tartan info. I did receive a message from Roderick McClay
but have not yet subscribed.
