[COLOR=BlueViolet]Just wanted to let you all know there's another Cameron in your midst! My gr-granpa Cameron came to Canada waay back when and eventually migrated over to Idaho where he met my gr-granma to be. I never knew my gr-granfather but I knew my gr-granma. She was a kind woman and sharp as a whip, even at an old age. Guess she had to be to put up with gr-granpa's fiery temper! Some years later, when I was a teen, my family and I were able to go to Scotland and visit our cousins still left from my gr-granpa's family. He had many brothers and sisters. We stayed with his two youngest sisters who were very old. They lived in Keith! I know that one of my gr-auntie's had one leg shorter than the other and she was known as "Limping Lily". It was exciting to see the farm where they all lived at one time. Since I've grown older and have learned more of my family heritage, the Camerons were supportive of Bonnie Prince Charlie. When I was small I used to be very romantic minded and would day dream about this bonnie prince. I always felt sorry for him and imagined that I would help him if I were alive in his day. Now I know where I get those strong feelings from! ~fedelmia |
