Mora [Canada] and Robertina [Italy] at The Craggan Hotel, Melness

Those interested in the affairs of the Clan Mackay Society will remember the visits of Robertina Mackay Caruso and Mora Mackay Cairns, the President of the Clan Mackay Association of Canada to the Clan Mackay and the great Mackay Ceilidhs held in the Craggan Hotel in Melness managed by our good friends Lynn and Hamish Mackay. Mora Mackay Cairns and her husband Bob, who flew from Scotland in the Fleet Air Arm during the Second World War joined a large party of Mackays in the Craggans in September 2004. Earlier in 2004 the late Charlie and Marie Mackay had hosted a similar event for the Italian Prime Television Programme "Dreams" at which Robertina and her family were flown in to Scotland to witness her joining her ancestral family here, Robertina's family had originally emigrated to South America, probably from the Bettyhill area. A scene from the Ceilidh in the Craggan is to be found below.
