Introduction

The village of Friockheim came into being in the early 19th century, when John Anderson, who later shortened his surname to Andson and who was Provost of Arbroath 1811-1814, obtained a feu charter of part of the lands of Friock from the then proprietor of the lands, Thomas Gardyne of Middleton. The name 'Friock' is possibly cognate with Gaelic 'fraoch', meaning 'heather'.

Andson's new village, originally called Friock Feus, included a spinning mill. In 1824, the name of the village was changed, by the addition of a somewhat incongruous German termination, to Friockheim, pronounced ['frikəm], with a short stressed vowel - approximately "freak 'em".

Friockheim lies almost entirely within the parish of Kirkden, but is partly in the parish of Kinnell. Information on topics not given on this page may be found on the pages for Kirkden and Kinnell. The parish of Inverkeilor lies east of the village, while Guthrie lies to the west.

SOLI . DEO . GLORIA . MICHAEL . BVRGERHVYS . M[E] . F[ECIT] . 1624

Michaël Burgerhuys (or Burgerhuis) (born ca. 1590 Aken [Aachen]; d. 1651 Middelburg), of Middelburg, Zeeland, the Netherlands was active as a bell-maker, 1617 to 1647. Other Scottish examples of his work are at Lundie ANS (1617); Kilmaurs AYR (1618); Cramond MLN (1619); Falkland Town Hall, Fife (1630); Benvie ANS (1631); Bolton ELN (1632); Lintrathen ANS (1632); Magdalen Chapel, Cowgate, Edinburgh (1632) - the bell weighs ca. 650 kg; Stichill ROX (1632); "Auld Lowrie", the former bell of St Nicholas, Aberdeen (1634); Queensferry WLN (1635); Rutherglen LKS (1635); Campbeltown ARL (1638); Inverkeithing FIF (1641); Maryton ANS (1642); Yetholm ROX (1643); Peterhead ABD (1647).

Jan Burgerhuys elder (d. 1617 Middelburg), Michael's father, who was active 1598-1614, supplied more than 15 bells to Scotland, including Liff ANS (1596) and the tenor bell at Fyvie ABD (1609) [ref.].

Jan Burgerhuys younger (d. 1679 Middelburg), Michael Burgerhuys's son, also cast some ten bells for Scottish kirks in the period 1642-1671, including Hutton BEW (1661); Farnell ANS (1662) and Panbride ANS (1664).

See Register van klokkengieters: B for details of the Burgerhuys family [in Dutch], and also John Smith's Old Scottish Clockmakers, pp. 248-50; the latter has several errors.

Monuments in the older section of Friockheim Cemetery, which was opened about 1858, (12 stones) bearing pre-1855 information are listed in Alison Mitchell (ed.), "Pre-1855 Monumental Inscriptions in Angus, Vol. 1: Strathmore" (Edinburgh: Scottish Genealogy Soc., 1993), which can be bought from the Scottish Genealogy Society.
