Hello Lorna, That is interesting, I hadn't realised that a member of the family may have worked for the Duke. I wonder if it a person who would also collect rents for any land owner. They say a lot of negative things about UK beaches but I can tell you that the sand on Calgary beach is about the whitest and finest I have ever seen. It is just startling when you see it against the blue sea. A really lovely area of Mull.
