In The Norse Influence on Gaelic Scotland (1910), George Henderson suggests that the name Dùn Bheagain derives from Old Gaelic Dùn Bheccáin ([the] fort of Beccán), Beccán being a Gaelic personal name. Dùn Bheagain would not mean 'little fort' as this would be Dùn Beag in Gaelic.
Geography
Dunvegan sits on the shores of the large Loch Dunvegan, and the Old School Restaurant in the village is noted for its fish, caught freshly from the loch itself. Dunvegan is situated at the junction of the A850, and the A863. The B884 road also has a junction with the A863, at the eastern end of Dunvegan.
Demography
Dunvegan's permanent population is declining. However, numbers staying in the area during holidays have increased dramatically over the years since 2001.
Dunvegan was a provincial electoral district in Northwestern Alberta. In 2004 the district was renamed Dunvegan-Central Peace. The district was created in 1986 from Spirit River-Fairview.
Oregon (i/ˈɔːrᵻɡən/AWR-ə-gən) is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Oregon is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the north by Washington, on the south by California, on the east by Idaho, and on the southeast by Nevada. The Columbia River delineates much of Oregon's northern boundary, and the Snake River delineates much of the eastern boundary. The parallel 42° north delineates the southern boundary with California and Nevada. It is one of only three states of the contiguous United States to have a coastline on the Pacific Ocean, and the proximity to the ocean heavily influences the state's mild winter climate, despite the latitude.
Oregon was inhabited by many indigenous tribes before Western traders, explorers, and settlers arrived. An autonomous government was formed in the Oregon Country in 1843, the Oregon Territory was created in 1848, and Oregon became the 33rd state on February14, 1859. Today, at 98,000 square miles, Oregon is the ninth largest and, with a population of 4 million, 26th most populous U.S. state. The capital of Oregon is Salem, the second most populous of its cities, with 160,614 residents (2013 estimate). With 609,456 residents (2013 estimate), Portland is the largest city in Oregon and ranks 29th in the U.S. Its metro population of 2,314,554 (2013 estimate) is 24th. The Willamette Valley in western Oregon is the state's most densely populated area, home to eight of the ten most populous cities.
The land Oregon, Illinois was founded on was previously held by the Potawatomi and Winnebago Indian tribes. In fact, later, settlers discovered that the area contained a large number of Indian mounds, most 10 to 12 feet in diameter.
Ogle County was a New England settlement. The original founders of Oregon and Rochelle consisted entirely of settlers from New England. These people were "Yankees", that is to say they were descended from the EnglishPuritans who settled New England in the 1600s. They were part of a wave of New England farmers who headed west into what was then the wilds of the Northwest Territory during the early 1800s. Most of them arrived as a result of the completion of the Erie Canal. When they arrived in what is now Bureau County there was nothing but a virgin forest and wild prairie, the New Englanders laid out farms, constructed roads, erected government buildings and established post routes. They brought with them many of their YankeeNew England values, such as a passion for education, establishing many schools as well as staunch support for abolitionism. They were mostly members of the Congregationalist Church though some were Episcopalian. Culturally Bureau County, like much of northern Illinois would be culturally very continuous with early New England culture, for most of its history.
Towner and Moore had been friends and occasional collaborators since meeting in 1960 as students at the University of Oregon. By 1969, both were working musicians living in New York; while collaborating with folksinger Tim Hardin they were introduced to world music pioneer Paul Winter's "Consort" ensemble, particularly member Collin Walcott, with whom Towner began improvising as an informal duo. By 1970 Towner and Moore had joined the Winter Consort and met fellow member McCandless; the four began exploring improvisation on their own, while their contributions continued to be seminal in redefining the Winter Consort "sound" in compositions like Towner's "Icarus".
The four musicians made their first group recording in 1970, but the label, Increase Records, went out of business before it could be released (it eventually was issued by Vanguard in 1980 as Our First Record). Oregon made its "formal" debut in NYC in 1971 (originally named "Thyme — Music of Another Present Era", the name change to Oregon was suggested by McCandless).
Join me on another adventure, this time as I explore the North West village of Dunvegan on the Isle of Skye.
Peace and tranquility beyond belief, it’s like a step back in time to a slower pace of life, I also discover it’s the location of Skye’s oldest bakery (the bread and cakes were delicious), I hope you enjoy my short film.

The Fairy Flag of Dunvegan: The MacLeods History of Magic (Scottish Folklore)
T-SHIRT LINK: https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/liath-wolf/
The fairy flag of Dunvegan was an heirloom, it has always belonged to the chiefs of the Clan MacLeod. The Flag has long been held on the Isle of Skye, at the seat of the clan MacLeod, the castle of Dunvegan. It is said to be made of a fine silk thread and is yellow in colour, the flag is covered in small red dots known as elf dots, it was thought there may have been a red pigment in the flag at one point during history. But more importantly it was known for its magical properties, which vary from tale to tale, some say it has the power to multiply a force and win any battle, others say it acts as a cure all or can dispel dark magic. It was thought that the flag was originally made by the Sith or fairy’s and somehow made it into the...

Dunvegan Castle, Isle of Skye
Enjoy our 20 minute walk around Dunvegan Castle, Seat of the Clan MacLeod. The first two minutes are outside the castle, the remainder takes you through all the public rooms within the castle. It’s a magnificent place!
Dunvegan Castle is one the greatest Hebridean castles and the only Highland fortress to have been continuously occupied by the same family for 800 years.
Please pause the video to read the information cards as you journey through the inside.
We spent a fantastic day there. You need, at the very least, half a day to do it justice. We went through the interior of the castle twice, then explored their extensive and magnificent gardens. A full day could have been enjoyed there quite easily. The castle shop is great too.

You may notice the painting of Duncan Forbes, Lord President, from Culloden House at exactly 12 minutes into the video. We own items which belonged to him and his son, John.
We would highly recommend a visit to Dunvegan Castle if you’re going to the beautiful Isle of Skye. If you have Clan MacLeod ancestry, we hope you enjoy.

It was thought that the flag was originally made by the Sith or fairy’s and somehow made it into the hands of the clan MacLeod. What is known for sure is that the flag has a long history, so long in fact, that no one really knows where the mystical flag came from, but there are a few theories on its origin.

Erik had always heard a legendary story about a golfer hitting the 18th green at The Old Course in St. Andrews from the cobblestone street corner up the block outside The Dunvegan, the course's famous 19th hole.
Today, he gets the full story. And finds someone to recreate the shot.

Enjoy our 20 minute walk around Dunvegan Castle, Seat of the Clan MacLeod. The first two minutes are outside the castle, the remainder takes you through all the public rooms within the castle. It’s a magnificent place!
Dunvegan Castle is one the greatest Hebridean castles and the only Highland fortress to have been continuously occupied by the same family for 800 years.
Please pause the video to read the information cards as you journey through the inside.
We spent a fantastic day there. You need, at the very least, half a day to do it justice. We went through the interior of the castle twice, then explored their extensive and magnificent gardens. A full day could have been enjoyed there quite easily. The castle shop is great too.
You may notice the painting of Duncan Forbes, Lord President, from Culloden House at exactly 12 minutes into the video. We own items which belonged to him and his son, John.
We would highly recommend a visit to Dunvegan Castle if you’re going to the beautiful Isle of Skye. If you have Clan MacLeod ancestry, we hope you enjoy.

In The Norse Influence on Gaelic Scotland (1910), George Henderson suggests that the name Dùn Bheagain derives from Old Gaelic Dùn Bheccáin ([the] fort of Beccán), Beccán being a Gaelic personal name. Dùn Bheagain would not mean 'little fort' as this would be Dùn Beag in Gaelic.
Geography
Dunvegan sits on the shores of the large Loch Dunvegan, and the Old School Restaurant in the village is noted for its fish, caught freshly from the loch itself. Dunvegan is situated at the junction of the A850, and the A863. The B884 road also has a junction with the A863, at the eastern end of Dunvegan.
Demography
Dunvegan's permanent population is declining. However, numbers staying in the area during holidays have increased dramatically over the years since 2001.
