I am picking up a very very old message - hope that you occasionally cast an eye over the Ekron board.

I am not related in any way to Ekrons, BUT I have just started a blog site to record the history of one aspect of my family history - th elife of my granny's cousin, who was the Cornet in Hawick 1919. Being Cornet is a very big deal, one has been chosen every year since at least 1703 - before even the Union with England.

But I haven't kept my eye on the main task - Granny's cousin - and I have started to full in the story of other Cornets, including James Ekron, Cornet in 1799.
It would be great if you could share your information - I have filled in a few fragments of his story in Hawick.

I haven't yet tracked down the reason for his nickname - "the Blast"! Does it ri ng any bells?
