Ewen Gillies (born 1825[1]), also known as 'California Gillies',[2] was a pioneering adventurer and serial emigrant from the remote Scottish island of Hirta, St. Kilda.[3] During a lifetime punctuated by migration, he settled for periods of time in Australia, New Zealand, California and possibly Canada, but returned home on three separate occasions to live in the small remote community on Hirta,[4] the only inhabited island in the small rocky St. Kilda archipelago, which has been described as Scotland's most remote and isolated island community, located in the Atlantic Ocean over 40 miles west of the Outer Hebrides.[5]
