The Royal Burgh of Earlsferry
"Ah ! what pleasant visions haunt me As I gaze upon the sea ! All the old romantic legends, All my dreams come back to me." -Longfellow-

"Breathes there the man, with soul so dead, who never to himself hath said, This is my own, my native land."
And Earlsferry never lets me forget it.

This personal website, courtesy of "BendBroadband", is started on this day the 4th of January 2006 to occupy me during some of the hours that winter confines me to the indoors. I've chosen to name my site, "Scottish Heritage" and what evolves will mostly be personal remembrances of my early years in the village where I was born in 1926, The Royal Burgh of Earlsferry, in the County of Fife, on the east coast of Scotland. This website started at the suggestion and encouragement of my school teacher daughter, Heather (Mrs. Renz) and her daughter Hillary. Heather is my webmaster and E-mail is our go-between.
Update I acquired a book on Microsoft FrontPage and slowly but surely Heather has weaned me to the point that I no longer need her help.( Well almost. Occasionally I do have to send, " Hey Heath,--Got a problem". ) The school teacher in her surfaced. She just had to disprove the myth of old dogs and new tricks. Ha. Ha. Look at Heather's awesome fourth grade class website.
Most of the pictures on this personal web site have been sent to me in Oregon by my Earlsferry friend and master photographer, Albert Lawrie. Visit Alberto's Website about Earlsferry and Elie. Also visit Alberto's fascinating new web site The Alberto Hutte
