Although  we live in  Australia we are Borderers. My husband was born in Roxburgh.
                            another Small  village. not too far from Redpath .pronounced Ripath by the locals. I found
                            the Affleck name Afflecks in Kelso in the sixteen Hundreds, it was thought that they arrive
                            with the Gypsiesm vyt DNA shows this is not so. U was not born in the borders, but lived
                            there from the age of 3. near Kelso.another loovely town ub the Borders.
