Why these British announcements always lack accents??? The spelling of her surname should be Björkström.

According to Scotland's People a Nina June Elliot-Murray-K was born 2020 and registered in Hawick. I wonder if the Hon Michael & is wife are the parents?

Also found under the name KYNYNMOUND (which only appears under Minto) MIA ROSE CAROLINE KYNYNMOUND b.2018 which could also be a daughter of Hon Michael & Emma & sister of above, as both registered at Hawick

Appears that the Hon Michael & his wife Emma have a son IVAN LARISTON (E-M) KYNYNMOUND b.2023 - 823/120 Hawick & Castleton. Source Scotland's People. The name LARISTON seems to appear in the Earl of Minto's name so confident that Ivan must be Hon Michael's son.

Hi Brooke

Thank you for pointing out that the couple have 2 daughters - i actually messaged DPB online and pointed out that with the unusual surname of KYNYNMOUND that they could be daughters of the couple and was pleased to see that one of my messages proved correct.
