Fourth annual Presidential Video-talk - The Thesaurer of Dundee Burgh - with Q&A Registration link

19 July 2025
Our newest Tay Valley video-talk, the fourth annual Presidential talk, is on the post that nobody wanted to hold - their own income or wealth could suffer! Here our President Iain Flett looks at the unsung burgh post of Thesaurer, a position so unpopular among the 17th and 18th century councillors that they had to be forced to perform the office. Very entertaining as well as instructive, with great use of the records which the City Archives are so fortunate to have.
Register for the Q&A (Monday 28th July) via EventBrite link on our Video Talks information page. Members, login, then scroll down page to the Video Talks Series. If you're not (yet) a member but have an interest in the Q&A, please email talks@tayvalleyfhs.org.uk.
