I have been there and I have met that lovely lassie. Her commitment was amazing and my kids were entertained by her description of how life was for a XVIII century family. Kudos to that museum and definitely worthy of a visit
I think it's so interesting how similar everyday life is over the centuries. My mom and dad got married in 1956. So my mother was an actual 50s housewife. My dad was career military. I can tell you it was exactly the way Marian described it. When my father was deployed my mom ran everything and when he was home she would let him appear to be the head of the household but in reality she still was in charge. She controlled everything from the finances to the children's education. If it involved the family she had final say. My dad had a say and when it came to the outside world he would take the lead. Women have been keeping the home fires burning for millennia. So interesting!
Same here! My dad was an airline pilot and gone for 3 days, home for 1 day and then gone for another 3 days. When he was home it was his job to make sure the car was taken care of, as well as any painting or repairing of the house. He mowed the lawn. He loved to go fishing and was happy to take the family for weekend and vacation trips to do just that. But it was Mom who tended the flower and vegetable gardens. Both of them went the through the Great Depression and Drought of the 1930's as children. They learned very early in their lives how to get by on very little and make much out of less.
My parents were born in the ‘20s. Daddy always used to laugh when I asked if he was in charge. He said I’m king of this castle as long as your mother lets me. 47 years together. Miss them both terribly.
It is true, My mamá was in charged of the house and was the head of My family but she don't pretend to show that My father was the household SHE WAS THE BOSS as the good Spanish lady she was😂
In my country we say "the father is the head of the family, but the mother is the neck that moves it." Which is exactly what you are describing. Too bad feminism is taking that power away from women.
Ms. Mary, I'm in Texas. I'm what people around here call "Hick" or "Redneck". But in the past couple years I waded into Historical Sewing. ...which took me in all sorts of directions! I'm trying to hone my hand sewing skills, using what I've learned from historical practices in modern ways. I'm learning to forage on my own several acres. I'm learning to keep my animals without having to buy commercial feed. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge. I think I'd like to spend some time with you, M'am ... as long as I could keep up with you and not be a nuisance!
Secobded. I'm from Louisiana (but now live in TN) and worked on my hand sewing for years. I'm a Cajun. It's good that ppl like us are holding onto old knowledge.
What a treasure she is 😊. My only complaint is that I want more. Her voice is like a calming breeze, the genuine smile, the earnest care that flows from herself.... just.... it's just something that the world needs more of. Blessings to you and yours
I love how Tom's accent becomes a lot stronger when talking to her. I do the same with my accent when I speak with people with very broad Australian accents.
@colourful8778 as an Aussie I never thought myself as having a broad accent. I was raised by a Glaswegian father and Maori mother in Australia so our family accent is very mixed, like licorice all sorts as my Glaswegian Nanna would say. Lol
"What can we take from history...to the present day?" A deep sense of gratitude for our forbearers for their hard work, stamina and perseverance, along with a deep sense of gratitude for the many comforts and privileges that we take absolutely for granted.
I loved watching this! I live in the Highlands on the other side of the Atlantic, the matching set of mountains in the Appalachians of Virginia. It’s amazing how satisfying it is to see the same familiar landscape across the great ocean! No wonder my Scots-Irish ancestors felt right at home when they arrived here. Thank you for the informative and fascinating video. I hope someday to come there for a visit, but I may not want to leave 😁
I've been watching your channel for about a year or so and I really enjoy following along! Just wanted to say, as a woman, I appreciate that you interviewed a woman about what life was like. It's a kind and heartwarming gesture that shows a beautiful respect you have for a woman's perspective. 💜
Many of the women on the American frontier would have brought these vital skills across with them from the Old World, without which they and their families would never have survived.
Brilliant, Marion talks like she's lived it. Maybe a couple of short videos with her doing some of the things she talked about. It was a good idea to do this video and it's now on my list of places to visit
Would love to see more videos like this.. including what life was like for children.. from birth to puberty.. Also what weddings and funerals were like.. And what foods did they eat and how was it prepared.. As we are new to this channel.. have not yet explored all the videos.. Those we have seen are beautiful and make us nostalgic for our homeland.. which we have never been privileged to see.. Please thank Tom for this channel and for his incredible videos.. we love all that we have seen.. Thank you so much from William and Jen 💜💙🌻🌹
Thankyou Marianne. I'm in Australia and cannot afford to travel. I value opportunities to learn and explore through videos like these. Particularly those giving instructions for beginners, and demos of low tech /tech free crafts.
The blood is strong. I'm a child of the Ulster Scots and grew up in the High Country of North Carolina. I was taught how to forge for wild greens and how to harvest barks and roots for teas and medicine. I don't think these skills are taught any longer and that's rather sad. Thanks for taking the time and hard work needed to present another great video.
Love the idea of that. My eyes are always on the ground. I have found a lot of $ that way. I truly believe my ancesters were hunter-gatherers! 😂😂😂 It's in my genes.
I'm a Lowland Scot. Very interesting to hear about my Highland counterparts from years gone by. I can spin, weave and knit. I bake bread also. Come the apocalypse I'll hopefully be able to barter.
True enough! Work with animals and the land long enough and you learn pretty well that any task left undone can have bad consequences later, even if it doesn't seem important in the moment.
It was generally a loving cooperation too between the men and women of the Highlands, as they both needed and wanted one another, a partnership without which they could never have survived such a beautiful, yet harsh environment.
@@franckorphanos2998 And the English/Americans/Canadians have done a good job on making us Native peoples forget ours as well. Those of us who hang on despite the forced assimilation policies and practices are treated with more than just a bit of disdain, often hostility, and told we're "living in the past." Yeah, well, mate that past was a hell of a lot better then what has been dumped on us as "the future."
@@nobody-special000 Why assimilate? If we like something another people does or has, we'll learn it and make it part of us. If not, then we'll decline. Some people just can't accept that other people have rich traditions that they hold dear and don't want to have other eays forced on them.
Wow, well done keeping up a traditional craft and we should all be wearing more wool. I’ve gone back to wearing woollen bush shirts and jumpers and away from artificial fleece. It feels both warm and refreshing, so much more breathable.
Spinning yarn and other tasks to do with making cloth & clothing is something every woman, and also older men and children, would do, often constantly, even when walking about. Fascinating to see images of women spinning as they walk somewhere, or minding their children or the cooking pot/fire. My understanding is also that everyone, regardless of gender, knit things like socks, as they were constantly needed! Loved the video!
😊❤ My mother told me how her mother, born in the 18hundreds, would walk from one town to the next on foot, while knitting socks. She was a farm girl, and had one sister and 7 brothers. She planted flax, spun and weaved linen herself. She had all those skills, from a long time ago. My mother's side of the family was from East Germany. Once upon a time called Prussia.
I still live a bit like this. I live in a medieval castle in the Netherlands and I run the household. I clean, cook, feed the chickens and the ducks, clean the chicken house, do the laundry, grocery shopping, the kitchen garden. But my husband works the gardens and has his job. We are always working 😅
watched this while spinning wool from a fleece that i got from a local farmer - very fitting! i loved listening to your conversation ❤️ these skills are so important to keep alive.
I’ve been married for 15 year and I’m far Scotland but live in America. I’ve got 6 children and I live “old fashioned”. I manage everything from baking all our bread and cooking fae scratch, teaching the weans and managing the money. My husband brings the money in and takes care of the outside. I’m holistic and know how to use a’ the things about me
I love this new video, Tom! The village you're featuring is absolutely stunning. Working in a place like that would be a dream come true! I'm now fascinated by the stories of the women who lived in the Highlands and the crucial role they played in Highland history and culture. You've really opened my eyes to a new aspect of Scottish heritage. Keep up the great work, and I can't wait for your next video!
Visited the museum just a few days ago. Well worth a visit for those interested. Marian was such a lovely source of information. And was so kind and patient with my mum who hardly speaks English
Thanks, Tom and Marian; this was a great and needed interview. I loved her line about surviving the apocalypse; I fear that may be among her truest statements in the years to come. Such a primitive lifestyle seems horrible, until it's literally your last resort.
First time I clicked on this channel, was to potentially help give me some insight & research for a 17th c Scottish Highlands setting for part of a novel I'm working on -- now, I just enjoy the channel
Hey I love these videos and I have read several books about the American Mt, men their tools and how they lived. My Grandfather was a Ferguson and one of our descendants was Champ Ferguson a confederate guerrilla during the Civil War. His family was attacked when he was gone and he became one vengeful bastard lol. It seems the Scott's are full of very colorful characters throughout history. I love your videos. I have to buy that book the swordsman you did the videos about. You always make such informative and entertaining videos. I'm really thrilled I ran across your channel. So I just wanted to say thank you for all your doing.
Thankyou for your explanation of those specific terms. I'm in Canada so have to adjust to the "accent" before I can make out things like sheilling - a term I've heard but did not understand. Would love to see more videos like this. 😊
The spot you were standing looks exactly like right here in the Ouachita mountains of Southwest Arkansas. There are alot of Scottish folks here as well . The area is very rural and there are many homesteaders. So the jobs she was talking about are very familiar. Many folks here have a well. So there had to be water. So they had to get the Saturday wash before Sunday Mass. My family came from the Isle of Mull about 200 years ago. My great great grannie was Charity Magdalene McLain.
I love to use fresh food from my garden and foraging. And I preserve a lot of it, too. My grandmother was a busy example of an indusrious farm oriented woman. She grew food and raised livestock, sold food, and preserved it. Seventy years after meeting her I'm still doing that. Sometimes I put on TouTube while I'm planting and weeding. Fall beans and winter squash are going in today.
A great interview. I just returned from a weeks visit to Edinburgh. Though a wonderful city and great people, it was the Highlands I longed for. Maybe next time lord willing.

I love how Tom's accent becomes a lot stronger when talking to her. I do the same with my accent when I speak with people with very broad Australian accents.
I do the same when I go home to Southern Appalachia.
It is probably his regular accent, he just changes it when he's making videos
@@LuxisAlukard Yeah probably, everyone has different levels of accent and tone they use for different situations
So do I.

Good to hear about life for the women, always wondered what it was like
Tom, Thanks for the questions you asked. Marion, Thanks for taking the time to answer them. Thx guys for filming this and sharing it with us.
This was really great! I'd loveto see more on ancient women's lives and their skills.
This is gold. You talking and listening to a lay full of knowledge. We need more of this in our lives.
I love her advice. And thanks for another great video.
I loved this! So fascinating! The past has always held more interest & pleasure for me than the present does. Thank you for this.
What a wonderful interview! Tell Marian how much your viewers in America loved hearing what she had to share.
I was in the baby barn with orphaned goat kids & a couple of warmed bottles, at dawn.
Many of the women on the American frontier would have brought these vital skills across with them from the Old World, without which they and their families would never have survived.
A lovely, personable lady. Pleasant to listen to.

Hearing from the people with experience is always valuable and unique. Thank you for facilitating that for us!
I visited the Highland folk museum a couple of months ago. Well worth a visit.
episode with marian at highlands folk museum, excellent; thank you for focus on homelife, women's work
Thank you so much! And big thanks to Marion for all of her apocalypseproof wisdow!
Would love to see more videos like this.. including what life was like for children.. from birth to puberty..
Also what weddings and funerals were like..
And what foods did they eat and how was it prepared..
As we are new to this channel.. have not yet explored all the videos..

I know what you mean. Australian here too. These videos are so enjoyable for us as to travel to Europe is beyond most of us

The ulster "Scots" are British not Scottish
You think it's sad but are you teaching anyone?
Love the idea of that. My eyes are always on the ground. I have found a lot of $ that way. I truly believe my ancesters were hunter-gatherers! 😂😂😂 It's in my genes.
😂😂😂 Ulster scots weren’t Scottish hen. Also Scottish identity is civic. Ancestry means nothing
I'm a Lowland Scot. Very interesting to hear about my Highland counterparts from years gone by. I can spin, weave and knit. I bake bread also. Come the apocalypse I'll hopefully be able to barter.
You sound like an impressive woman with true survival skills, far more attractive than some high maintenance Barbie in the city!
I am happy for this I always thought this was missing from your channel
What a wonderful lady, Marion. Thank you Tom. That was an enjoyable interview. And an excellent video. God bless us all.
Thank you !:
Always good to hear from country folk.
Visited here a couple of years back, it's a fab place, had lots of interesting chats with the interpreters
loved this vid, thanks so much to you and marian
Let’s please clarify that all woman’s work was important, not just the work that was done while the men were away.
True enough! Work with animals and the land long enough and you learn pretty well that any task left undone can have bad consequences later, even if it doesn't seem important in the moment.
It was generally a loving cooperation too between the men and women of the Highlands, as they both needed and wanted one another, a partnership without which they could never have survived such a beautiful, yet harsh environment.
Yep, and they were having babies as well.
Yep, the work they did when the men were back was important too. :) 🤰🤰🤰😚😘
Thank you for this video! It’s something I’ve been eager to learn more about.
I fully believe that when you forget your past, you forfeit your future.
That is a very profound observation.

While I was watching, I was wool combing for the next spinning (which I do with a drop spindle). Fitting entertainment for this task :D
