- AfraserMemberI was born and raised in Scotland, came here when I was 19. Scottish schools taught Scottish history! I would have preferred to have been associated with the Frasers of Lovat, but I am pretty sure I am not.

- SisterMemberMy great great grandmother was a Buchanan and the name has been passed down in each generation since. She married a Macadam and arrived with him and extended family in Melbourne in 1848. The Buchanan castle is (or at least was in the 80's) a picturesque ruin in the middle of a golf course near Loch Lomond. Apparently, George Buchanan was a famous Latin scholar and tutor to Mary Queen of Scots and later to her son, James (I believe he was also convinced that the world was flat).
