    My wife was born in Dunfermline and we visited there from New Zealand on 2019. Scotland is still her "heart" place although she has lived on NZ for more than 55 years. Aroha from NZ

    I was born in Dunfermline. Lived opposite Pete Agnew of Nazareth. I've lived abroad for many years but I miss the old town.

    My family name, Philp, supposedly originated from that area. If I ever visit Scotland I'm going there, and climbing that big hill!

    Hello, you skillfully avoided Leven, Methil, Buckhaven etc.
    I was born in Cameron Hospital Windygates, across from the distillery and have returned to "smell" my past.
    My fatther and many of his ancestors and kin were coal miners in our kingdom.
    Please mention this part of Fife.
    An Aussie since 1971 but always a Fifer.
    Best regards,
    Tony Harrower

      Fife isn't a county brother..... It's the only area in great Britain that has the title 'Kingdom' in it... The Kingdom of Fife.... The Earl's of Fife we're the only Lord's of Scotland who could legally crown a king, and often during wars or invasion These Earl's were the first to be captured.. as they were the king Maker's... :-) I'm a Fifer ma-sell..
