Scottish Marmalade?

[Mike_Oettle]

That’s pretty interesting, about marmalade being made in Scotland in the 18th century.
My mother has always made marmalade, since before I was born, and (whenever she has citrus fruit to work with) she still makes it at the age of 86.
Personally I have never developed a taste for it. I also have heard chiefly about English marmalade, but then Rose’s, who market it around the world, are based in England.
I have never thought to ask my mother where she learned the art of making marmalade, but it was always served in her parents’ home, and she still has it on toast with her breakfast.
Since my grandfather was English, I assumed it to be an English custom. But then he also was fond of eating kippers for breakfast – a Scottish product, if not necessarily a Scottish custom.
At the same time, there could be a connection with my mom’s maternal grandfather – perhaps he asked his Afrikaner wife to make it for him.
