#crofter

Made a mini update on my NewWorld AU and added a family and it's Anti's lol

So about Auto's fam, im reestablishing Cor to be the youngest brother, it's more fitting that way than having all of them as quadraplets(also i like to keep the trio webarebears themed or smth like that). Also it's fun that way, I'll have cor be the main center of attention of the parents and that he's a monster towards his older sibs, kinda like Anaiz from Gumball

A mini description for Anti's family, it's a bit dysfunctional and incomplete, Hobo, being the oldest, have to, like, provide to his younger brothers I guess so they struggling or whatever. Also hobo and redacted have some beef going on so there's that.

December 12th 1902 saw the birth on the island of Barra of Nan MacKinnon, who became a traditional singer and storyteller on the island of Vatersay.

Nan MacKinnon (Nan Eachainn Fhionnlaigh) was born in Kentangaval in Barra and the youngest of seven children. Her father, Hector (Eachann Fhionnlaigh),was descended from the MacKinnons of Strath on the Isle of Skye – the historic grazing constables to the MacNeils of Barra until the 19th century.

Nan's mother Mary was from Mingulay, and had strong connections with the MacPhee family, who came to settle in Barra in the 14th century. After receiving her schooling on the island, Nan left home when she was seventeen and spent a number of years in service for a variety of people in Argyll.

One of her sisters died suddenly in 1940, leaving four young children and a husband who was away at sea for long periods. Nan returned home to Vatersay to raise the children and remained there for the rest of her life. She was discovered by Donald MacPherson of Barra.

Later on the University of Edinburgh’s School of Scottish Studies recorded her singing 600 songs, and relating over 1000 stories, anecdotes and proverbs she knew by heart. Her singing voice was very unusual, and debate continues to this day as to whether she simply had a unique personal style, or represented the last survivor of a now lost traditional style.

There’s a short clip of Nan on Youtube here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RRLzlY91MA&feature=emb_imp_woyt

21st May 1872 saw the death in Bunessan on Mull of the Gaelic poet Mary MacDonald.

In some ways Mary’s life was unremarkable: in outline it was the same as hundreds, perhaps thousands, of other women who lived in the highlands and islands of Scotland. She was a farmer’s daughter, born in 1789 in Ardtun, a crofting settlement to the east and north of Bunessan. She married Neil MacDonald and lived her whole life here as a crofter’s wife, till her death in 1872.

Like all of her community Mary was a Gaelic speaker; but more significantly, she was a Gaelic singer. As she sat at her spinning-wheel in her wee croft she would sing. Sometimes she would make up her own songs, setting them to the old folk melodies of the islands: her monument, as seen in the pic, outside Bunessan describes her as a poetess. She was a devout Baptist, and her songs were often hymns. Some of these became well-known in the area, perhaps being sung in the little church in Bunessan.

In 1888 a journalist and Gaelic scholar named Lachlan Macbean brought out a collection of Gaelic lyrics named Songs and Hymns of the Scottish Highlands.  One of the hymns he included in the book has words by Mary MacDonald. It is i quoted on her memorial cairn near Bunessan, though Macbean’s version has slightly different words.

The original verse included the words in Gaelic;

“Leanabh an àigh! Leanabh bh’aig Màiri; Rugadh an stàbull, Righ nan dùl! Thainig do’n fhàsach, Dh’fhuiling ’nar n-àite Son’iad an aireamh Bhitheas dha dluth”

MacBean translated this into English as follows:

“Child in the manger! Infant of Mary; Outcast and stranger, Lord of all! Child who inherits All our transgressions, All our demerits On Him fall!”

Crofter Calum MacLeod 63 shoulders his shovel after another days work on the road ... his own road on 29th April 1973.

Calum was a Local Assistant Keeper of Rona Lighthouse and the part-time postman for the north end of Raasay.

After decades of unsuccessful campaigning by the inhabitants of the north end of Raasay for a road, and several failed grant applications, Calum decided to build the road himself. Purchasing Thomas Aitken’s manual Road Making & Maintenance: A Practical Treatise for Engineers, Surveyors and Others for half a crown.

Over a period of about ten years between 1964 and 1974, he constructed one and three quarter miles of road between Brochel Castle and Arnish, using little more than a pick, a shovel and wheelbarrow. Initial blasting work was carried out and funded, to the sum of £1,900, by the Department of Agriculture’s Engineering Department, who supplied a compressor, explosives, driller, blaster, and men.

Several years after its completion, the road was finally adopted and surfaced by the local council. By then, Calum and his wife, Lexie, were the last inhabitants of Arnish.
