Aiken Drum is believed to be originally used 
in Scottish folk lore. The Canadians brought the name 
back to fame in their children's rhymes. Then along came 
Julian May! A fine author who has written numerous novels, 
the most popular one being "The Many Colored Land and the
 Golden Torc". This is where Aiken Drum comes into things...

 In these novels he starts out a jokester (notice the 
similarities yet?) and rogue. He matures into a noble and 
good person who becomes King of their "Many Colored Land". 
Tis' my joke upon the world when I adopted the name Aiken 
Drum that my ambition was no less than to become  King of 
the world!

If you want to know more about my family and myself you 
can visit our personal family website listed below. There 
is a picture or two if you really want to torture yourself...

*grin* It makes "them" wonder!
