Who is 'An Arbroath Timeline' ? If you have roots leading back to Aberbrothock then you are and what you remember. Your father & mother & what information they have. Your grandparents & great grandparents & their memories. And fewer generations ago than you may think, a someone who looks perhaps just a little familiar is standing in awe before a brand new Abbey & a fledgling Aberbrothock. You may feel "oh, that was then, this is now - surely there's no connection" .......but what's that silently tugging at your soul ? Aye....it's found you. You with the proud history.

At the start of this timeline I suggested that Arbroath is a special place. I hope these pages have confirmed this for you. Wherever you hail from, many thanks for your interest and may your next visit be in person....

The red dots indicate the locations of visitors to 'An Arbroath Timeline' June to August 2009, perhaps disclosing in some cases where emigrants & their descendents have established themselves internationally.
