Yung #accordion performer and piano etc tuner popping up frequently in the #ScottishBorders in the latter half of the 19th century (1850s onwards). A bit of genealogical digging finds he was born in #Darmstadt, #Germany, and died in #Hawick in 1903. I may well pull together the various references into a more scholarly article. #squeezebox #Scotland #music #MusicHistory #HistoryOfMusic #Genealogy #BNA
