Background

Gorrenberry is an ecological restoration project which aims to restore much of the biodiversity of a substantial area in the Scottish Southern Uplands, while maintaining a varied pattern of economic activity at a sustainable level.

In 2011 Gorrenberry was a 935 hectare hill farm including four dwellings and two groups of steadings on the Hermitage Water, Roxburghshire, Scottish Borders (55.266827N, 2.845836W). It was purchased in March 2011 by Jane Bower and Ken Lyall. The farm is approximately 20 miles south of Hawick and is reached by the unclassified road between the A7 and the B6399 signposted to Hermitage Castle.

R-L165 SNP map, shows not one from Ulster Northern-Ireland, and a number which seem to be clustered in the Anglo-Saxon East Anglia expansion region. Tentative conclusion, that it is a direct migration of the Buie of Jura Isle to the North Carolina Argyll Colony. May be also some Danish-Viking Y-DNA admixture among this Buie of Jura Y-DNA cluster, as show in the language meaning of the word Jura;

Map shows census concentration migrations of the surname Buie of Jura, from the North Carolina Argyll Colony and beyond. Remember the name can easily become Bowie.

Blaeu 1654 Isle of Jura

Group could easily be from the settlement of Jura.

Jura is spelled Ijura, for the island and settlement (another Blaeu 1654 map).

Jura is spelled Ijura

In the Blaeu 1654 map the name Kilgarth is used along the borders of Scotland. Kil- is from the gaelic Gil- for the Scottish Kirk- which mean church. -garth for a church means a church with a courtyard. The ÿ which I thought because it was with umlaut had some German origins, but also said to have an ij combination spelling it does.

The ij combo in the Scottish borderlands which becomes ÿ is Gaelic.

Buie name by census in the UK is concentrated Northeast of Glasgow. It is likely that the name migrated from the Isle of Jura (Ijura) to the mainland. It is possible for this surname of Argyll to migrate from this region onto the Argyll Colony of North Carolina.

Note; there is another SNP group to carry the Buie surname. Should be also noted in adding information to a family tree, this individual is likely to add highly needed information unlike the rest of the group.
