Jean Beale
b. Montreal, Quebec |
THESE
FOLKS DIDN'T SEEM TO LIKE STAYING IN ONE PLACE FOR ANY GREAT LENGTH OF
TIME, PERHAPS BY BEING BRUSHMAKERS AND BEING ON THE TRAMP. THERE IS A
DEFINITE CHILL IN THE AIR ON THIS TRAIL BUT I'M NOW IN SOUTHAMPTON,
HAMPSHIRE IN THE LATE 1700'S EARLY 1800'S. |

ALAS,
WHAT I GREW UP BELIEVING TO BE MY AYRSHIRE LINE OF SCOTS HAVE NOW CROSSED

A BIT O' THE "LUCK OF THE IRISH" I CAN GO FURTHER! |
