An Exploration of Bonny Doon, California Ye banks and braes o' bonie Doon, How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?When Robert Burns penned these lines, the first in the song "The Banks O'Doon", he likely had no premonition that they would one day inspire the name of a community half a world away. A native of his country (but not a relative), one John Burns, settled there in 1852, operating a mill and lumber yard. The verdant nature of the country must have made an impression upon him, as he named them after the countryside Burns memorialized in so many of his works.Bonny Doon was never known for its population of Scotchmen, nor for its lumber. In 1905, 21 parcels of land out of 105 were owned by lime companies or individuals speculating in the lime business – mineral, not fruit.
