ELVIS PRESLEY'S FAMILY ROOTS IN ABERDEENSHIRE

Early day motion 960, tabled 31 March 2004 by Alex Salmond (Scottish National Party). Signed by 15 members.

That this House is delighted to learn from the research of Scots author, Allan Morrison, that Elvis Presley's family origins lie in the Buchan village of Lonmay; notes that the people of North East Scotland will be delighted to discover that the king of rock and roll was an Aberdeenshire loon by ancestry; welcomes this well documented finding; and invites Elvis fans around the world to visit his musical roots in Lonmay, which would give a welcome and long-term boost to tourism in Aberdeenshire.
