It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

1. Alexander Broun of Sauchie d 1518
A. John Broun of Sauchie
m Gelise Shaw
i. Peter Broun of Finderlie and Balquharne
BLG1886 reports that Peter was killed at Pinkie 1547 and was alive in 1595, showing some confusion that might indicate that there was another generation involved.
a. Robert Broun of Finderlie and Balquharne
m Katherine Douglas dau of John Douglas of Kinneston, cadet of Lochleven

m Sir Michael Arnot of that ilk
2 Elizabeth Broun

m2 William Keith of Annacroich
3 Euphame Broun
m Thomas Turnbull of Skeddisbus
BLG1886 indicated that it was still to be confirmed that the following John was the second son of Peter Broun of Finderlie. The dates suggest that a generation might have been omitted somewhere.

2 Ebenezer Broun 3rd son b c 1755
A? James Broun Major As reported by Greg Stephens, a researcher of this family, the reference to him as a son of the above Ebenezer "...only appeared in a text from the 1800s which has since been copied into multiple sources and appears to be based on a memorial James placed in the old Orwell Churchyard to his grandparents. (A separate memorial with the spelling Brown rather than the existing memorial?) Of further concern is James doesn’t fit in with the Scottish naming convention used in this line and, without seeing the memorial inscription...." So his connection with this family can be doubted. The text also said he was in the military in the West Indies which makes me believe he is actually Major James Brown from the Colstoun line (close relatives) who was also in the West Indies and born around the same time and was later knighted. This seems to have been the James listed in brown02.htm.
