Christina McAusland, Baroness McAusland of Caldenoch ( – ) is a Scottish scientist. She was born at St Andrews, Fife Scotland.
She is no relation to Prince Andrew, Duke of York or Boris Johnson.
Early life[edit]
Christina McAusland was born in St Andrews, Fife Scotland.[3]
Baroness of Caldenoch[edit]
Caldenoch[edit]
On 6th March 1965, a “Mistress Helen MacAuslane of Caldenoch” was “Officially-Recognised by the Lord Lyon King of Arms in matriculating from them arms” “of Caldenoch”. Caldenoch had been part of the original McAusland barony but had been sold to the Colquhouns of Luss before 1718.
Mistress Helen MacAuslane of Caldenoch[edit]
In 1976, a “Baroness” Helen MacAuslane of Caldenoch, aged 63, and her daughter “Lady” Helen MacAuslane, aged 39, had been found guilty at Oban Sheriff Court of obstructing a road near Croig Pier on Mull with their caravan. The two defendants had refused to take the Oath and stated that as the road in question was private, no offence had been committed.
Barony[edit]
Regarding the titles used by the two ladies, The court of the Lord Lyon stated that when the armorial bearings of Helen MacAuslane of Caldenoch were recorded, the Lord Lyon had not determined whether Caldenoch was a barony.
Caput[edit]
The crucial point would seem to be whether Ms MacAuslane’s suffix “of Caldenoch” was due to her being the senior representative of the McAuslands of Caldenoch, or whether she actually owned the caput, or seat, of the ancient Scottish feudal barony of the McAuslands. In the former case she would be head of the family, but not Baroness MacAuslane, but if she held the caput, she would indeed be the holder of a (pre-2004) Scottish feudal Barony. [4]
Viscountess d'Aubigny[edit]
Scientific career[edit]
1878 Open Championship[edit]
Kirk's best chance to win the Open Championship came in the 1878 Open Championship, held 4 October at Prestwick Golf Club in Prestwick, South Ayrshire, Scotland. Fellow Scotsman Jamie Anderson won the Championship for the second successive year, by two strokes from runner-up Kirk.[2][5][6] Kirk fired rounds of 53-55-51=159 and won £5 in prize money.[2]
Details of play[edit]
In stormy overcast weather with some rain—typical conditions for early October at Prestwick—James Morris took the early lead with a first round of 50. Anderson, Kirk and the English amateur John Ball each scored 53, to be three shots behind. Morris began the second round badly and finished with a 56 for a total of 106. Anderson, with a second round of 53, was tied with him, while Kirk and Tom Morris, Sr. were both two strokes behind.[6]
Morris was in the third group out and had a final round 55 for a total of 161. Playing a few groups behind, Anderson began his third round with two sevens, but thereafter played steadily. With Morris finished he was told that he needed to play the last four holes in 17 to tie with Morris. At the Burn Hole (the 9th) he holed a full iron shot for a three, followed that spectacular shot with a four at the 10th, and at the Short Hole (the 11th) his tee shot landed on top of the hill behind the green. The ball then ran down the hill and into the hole for a hole-in-one. A five at the last gave him a round of 51 and a total of 157. Kirk, playing in the last group, was still in contention. On the last green he was told that if he holed his long putt he would tie Anderson. The putt lipped out and he missed the return putt but his score of 159 was enough to give him second place.[6]
1869 and 1870 Open Championships[edit]
Tom Morris, Jr. was the best golfer in the world in the late 1860s and early 1870s and he exhibited his considerable skills in the 1869 Open Championship and the 1870 Open Championship tournaments. At this point in time he was beating his legendary father, Tom Morris, Sr., on a regular basis. In the 1869 Open Championship, Morris, Jr. won going away by an 11-shot margin and bested that effort in the 1870 Open by trouncing the field by 12 shots. In both years Kirk was the distant second-place finisher.
Death[edit]
Christina McAusland is still living.[7]
