People of Angus local history James Matthew Barrie 1860 - 1937 Early Life James Barrie was born on 9 May 1860 in Kirriemuir Forfar Thrums is Born At Kirriemuir he still had to persuade his family he would earn his living as a writer. He saw a job advertised by the "Nottingham Journal" for someone to write leading articles. James sent away a University essay and got the job. Later, when the owners had to economise, he was out of work and came home. Listening once more to his mother’s tales, he thought he could turn them into an article. Kirriemuir was to be called "Thrums". The piece was sent to a London newspaper. Back came the reply, "I like that Scotch thing. Any more of those?" Success as a Writer In 1885, he moved to London, again with Alexander’s help. He worked hard on a wide range of articles for newspapers. This brought him regular money at last - £20 a month! He had "Auld Licht Idylls" published in 1888 and people liked the humour in it. Many successful novels followed and James was thrilled when Robert Louis Stevenson wrote to him from Samoa. The Origins of Peter Pan J M Barrie married an actress in 1894, and when they were on honeymoon in Switzerland they bought a St Bernard puppy. This dog was to become an important part of a future play.

6. SLAINTE Sir JM Barrie Novelist Dramatist 18601937. James Matthew Barriewas born in Kirriemuir (Forfarshire), the Thrums of his fiction http://www.slainte.org.uk/Scotauth/barridsw.htm

Sir J M Barrie James Matthew Barrie was born in Kirriemuir (Forfarshire), the "Thrums" of his fiction, on 9th May 1860, the seventh surviving child of a hand-loom weaver. Educated at Glasgow Academy, Forfar Academy and Dumfries Academy, he took his MA at Edinburgh University. He worked as a journalist for the Nottingham Journal before moving to London in 1885 to freelance. Success came with a series of sketches of life in bygone Thrums contributed to the St. James's Gazette , published in 1888 as Auld licht idylls , followed by When a man's single (1888) and A Window in Thrums (1889). These works and the novels The Little minister Sentimental Tommy (1896) and its sequel Tommy and Grizel (1900) have been regarded by George Blake and others as examples of the Kailyard School. Leonee Ormond 's J.M. Barrie (1987) argues that it is more rewarding to assess Barrie's regional fiction beside that of Hardy and George Eliot Barrie's dramatised adaptation of The Little minister was enormously successful, persuading him to write increasingly for the stage. Notable among his early plays are Quality Street The Admirable Crichton (1902) and What every woman knows (1908). In 1894 he married the actress

Surname: Famous Scots - Sir J M Barrie (1860-1937) Born in Kirriemuir on 9 May 1860 in the house pictured here, James Mathew Barrie was the 9th child of a weaver. Even as a child, he wrote for the school magazine and drama group (in which he also acted). He took a Master of Arts degree at Edinburgh University and after a short spell with the Nottingham Journal he moved to London in 1885. Barrie wrote for a number of papers and published his first book in 1887 and subsequent stories established his reputation and popularity. "Auld Licht Idylls" was a series of racy sketches of humble life in Kirriemuir (renamed 'Thrums' in the book, after the word in weaving for the ends of the warp threads). These stories began what was to become known, somewhat disparagingly, as the "Kailyard School" of Scottish fiction. A number of novels followed including "The Little Minister" and "Margaret Ogilvy" , the latter a tender tribute to his mother. But Barrie was now turning more to writing plays and even an opera (in collaboration with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, no less). In 1897 a stage version of "The Little Minister" was a great popular success and he went on to create many of his well known works such as "The Admirable Crichton" in 1902. A story "The Little White Bird" published in 1902 had ideas which Barrie carried forward to his best known work "Peter Pan". This was first performed in 1904 and was followed by
