I began writing a family history on my branch of the Tait family who lived in Kirk Yetholm in the Scotish Borders for generations. In doing so, I have conducted extensive research into the lives of my grandfather and his siblings. He was John Moore Tait, born in Kirk Yetholm in 1887, who left yetholm for Edinburgh at the end of that century.

Research indicates interbreeding with the Yetholm Gypsies, and as a consequence there is gypsy blood in my veins.

I am particularily interested in information/research and facts about the area and its people.
