Too Quiet in Here

<t>Thanks Donald! I guess looking for participants is one of those activities in life where you work on percentages. I write to hundreds of people each year and get a handful who are interested. I am happy to say that we will have a new Angus-shire Livingstone family in the project BTW, because that...

Too Quiet in Here

<r>Hi David I got involved because my maternal grandmother's family has a strong family legend of connections to the clan. When I took up genealogy it was one of the first things I tried to check, but the more I found the more I realized there was very little solid evidence that anyone had. Indeed o...

More information about my Family

Found it. Glen Quaich is the valley which contains Loch Freuchie, quite a bit to the south of Dull, but perhaps still in the parish. (I think Dull is a big parish.) Regards Andrew

More information about my Family

<r>I'd say there is indeed a good chance that you have your man. Have you looked at the original document (or a scan)? You might find that it is just a modern transcription error. Dull is interesting because it is mentioned in the "Account" we have mentioned before. You might be related to Kyle! On ...

Not liking the data from 1855 on.

Maybe one approach you could consider depending upon your aims, is to switch over to using census information for 1851 to 1901. These are indexed with ages etc. Also several are now available on ancestry.com for no pay-per-view to normal subscribers to that service. Regards Andrew

Lead in Tartan 1003 Research

I am trying to remember why, but I am sure we've come to think about whether we have connections to the McColls before. Anyone remember anything?

Lindsaig Ownership and Stonefield

No possible link along those two male lines. At least not since the stone age. MacWho types are pretty different from Kyle's.

Lindsaig Ownership

I guess that if there was a title up for grabs that went with the surname, then a husband might even have taken up a wife's name at some point, explaining the different male lines you are on. Regards Andrew
