Book Description
Although family legend claims the Gair family came to Scotland with Mary, Queen of Scots, the recorded family history starts in the Scottish Highlands in 1770 with the birth of Hugh Gair. While Hugh died where he had always lived, all of his surviving descendants had immigrated to the United States by the mid 1800s. This book tells the stores of successes and struggles in the author's paternal line in Scotland and in the United States, including life on a farm in rural Eastern Colorado during the 1940s and 1950s.
