I'm Christian Minnery, born in Glasgow,Scotland, but now reside just outside Indianapolis. My family are from Barrhead and Thornliebank, I'm a direct descendant of John and by a strange twist of fate my friend in Houston just married a girl from Tanzania who grew up near Ogden Estate in Arusha. Subsequently, I'll be in that area climbing next year!
