The Graham family of the Cruickshank-Montrose-Graham families were responsible for overturning the law that once prohibited Scottish people from wearing their traditional colors. Courage in freedom and liberty’s truth and a quest for the highest good has always been a marvellous family trait as a rule for most… though, we have all had our fair share of fumbles and trying moments too. :)

family fact: on the maori side of my family, i have fifty first cousins. the name of my youngest first cousin is holly hill. she’s kinda a global young adult. a jet setter from an arts-business, power infrastructure builds & movie loving family. having a young cousin named holly hill made me smile when i got to hollywood. :)
