    Can you tell me if the McKune family farmed there? My late mother Jane Mckune was born in Ruthwell in 1917, she was one of fifteen in the family who farmed there. The farm was on the Solway but I don’t know the name.

  • @gtritchie5
    @gtritchie5Ай бұрын

    I asked Roy Broach the farmer I worked for at Thwaite Farm Ruthwell. This was his reply. My great grandfather moved to Thwaite in 1877 , I have no record of previous tenant; however I believe that the McKune family farmed at Ladyhall Ruthwell before moving to Slethat Farm near Mouswald.

    That Case IH Optum 250 was bought new by a farmer near me in County Durham from JG Paxtons. It was traded in for a 23 plate Claas 830 Axion last season. He also had a 22 reg Case IH Puma 240 but last harvest season he was using a 14 plate Claas 810 Axion. Case backup mustn't be as good as Rickerby's. Also, Bowburn (Rickerby) is closer to us than Pity Me (Paxtons) is.

    @gtritchie5 I was surprised to see the sudden change to Claas machinery . Spring cultivations should be underway here soon once the land dries out. I'll see what machinery he's got this year as one of his bigger fields is behind my house. He may still have the Puma as I haven't seen that on Paxtons or Rickerbys website for sale yet.

    I remember going to Annan with my parents when I was young in the late 60s/ early 70s and looking through the gates of Rickerby (it was down a side street off the main street on the right hand side) and seeing the new tractors then which were probably an International 434 and later a John Deere 20 series with a Duncan cab. It probably started my lifetime interest in tractors and reading your comment I can picture them as if it was yesterday!
