Falkirk Town Council
|
Falkirk Town Council was established in 1833 following the Burgh Reform Act of 1833 which created parliamentary burghs and gave the new parliamentary burghs the right to elect town councils and to elect a member of parliament. The Falkirk Police and Improvement Act, 1859 abolished the Stentmasters and transferred all their powers to the Town Council, turning the parliamentary burgh into a police burgh. The Town Council was abolished in 1974 following the Local Government (Scotland) etc Act, 1973, and its powers transferred to Falkirk District Council

Jeremiah Dixon
|
Jeremiah Dixon FRS (27 July 1733 – 22 January 1779)[1] was an English surveyor and astronomer who is best known for his work with Charles Mason, from 1763 to 1767, in determining what was later called the Mason-Dixon line.
Dixon was born in Cockfield, near Bishop Auckland, County Durham, in 1733, the fifth of seven children, to Sir George Fenwick Dixon 5th Bt. and Lady Mary Hunter. The Mason–Dixon line was surveyed between 1763 and 1767 by Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon in the resolution of a border dispute involving Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware in Colonial America. It is still a demarcation line among four US states, forming part of the borders of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, and West Virginia (originally part of Virginia). It represents the cultural border between the Southern United States and the Northern United States. |
