New Video-Talk - Down a Rabbit Hole!

24 January 2026

The talk is available at https://youtu.be/Dsn4j-rPyMU
'Down the Rabbit Hole!' deals with circumstances and a family in St. Andrews at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, amidst fears of French invasion, army and militia changes, and people going to law about - rabbits on the golf course. It begins with a mystery person, John Fraser, and his children, explores a possible connection, and asks whether he was the same John Fraser who was injured in a stand-off between a golfer and the guards on the rabbit warren... looking at issues of invasion fears and army changes along the way.
(Try saying 'First Statistical Account' or 'Fotheringham Ogilvy Fraser' fast!)
