Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required Who or what was this Gretna Green? I oft' did ponder And English heroine or a fetching greensward? I oft' did wonder! I learned on my bewildering computer and with my 'cyclopedia at hand, 'Tis a village amid the brae and heather in the South of Scotland! The Scots are renowned for their haggis and kilts of tartan plaid, The elusive Loch Ness Monster and the finest whiskey to be had! Lesser know is the village of Gretna Green and its colorful past, Where hordes of couples fled to wed without being harassed! In 1754 the Brits passed A Marriage Act that changed the town forever, Decreeing if under age twenty-one, from their folks they could not sever. Soooo, if neither could obtain the necessary parental consent, Off to Gretna Green they'd elope - this grave restriction to circumvent! Gretna Green is the first town just north of the English border. There, lovers fled to unite their lives sans parental warder! The blacksmith on a road called "Headless Cross" was their destination; There, an "anvil priest" legally hitched them up with little hesitation! The "anvil" has since become the symbol of Gretna Green, Since at the blacksmith shop is where eloping couples would convene! There, the "anvil priest" "forged" a union that each did cherish, Leaving enraged mums and dads seething back in the local parish! Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired (© All Rights Reserved)
