Flora Macaulay

Her father bought the Oban Times in 1882 and placed Flora's eldest brother as editor.

[4] They originally lived in Glasgow but they relocated to Edinburgh when Blair got a position as minister of St John's Church.

[6] Her editorial style was very pro-Gaelic, including supporting Highland bagpipers[6] and the ancient Scottish sport of shinty.

[1] She died in Oban on 31 January 1958 but was buried with her first husband, Rev Blair, in Dean Cemetery in west Edinburgh.

The grave is marked by a highly ornate Celtic cross carved in grey granite by Stewart McGlashan.
