He used to tell me stories of his home in Scotland. I really wish I would have paid more attention them. I often wonder what brought him to the States because Scotland is so beautiful and I would love to go see where my family came from.

their lives. Any chance you can fill me in on this info? One of the George Burrells in my
line had more than one marriage and one of his wives was named Mary. Let me know if you
would be willing to compare or exchange info. Thank you....Desiree Rodcay

Tom, I found your site by accident while looking for some stuff at SRO. When you see a
website setup under what appears to be your own name, you just have to have a look ! I`m
also from Stirling (Thomas Geddes Paterson, b1958) so your page was even more interesting.
Looks great and I`ll have a closer look when I have more time. I`ve had a quick glance at
your family groups, but would appear no overlaps. In may case the name came to Stirling
only with my Dad in the 50s, via Hillfoots and Lanarkshire. Speak to you again.

County Ireland, possibly the son of Hugh Massy. Would you by any chance have the names of
the sons of Hugh Massy? After James H. Massey came to America in approx. 1800 he had 18
children and there are a lot of people who would like to identify who his parents were.
Any help MORE THAN APPRECIATED. However, I will fully understand if this is information
that you would not be able to provide to us. Thank You. B.J. (Massey) Clay

Dear Tom, what a huge amount of information about Falkirk (and other places). I am putting
together the family tree with an emphasis on trying to understand how each generation
lived, what they did, were they rich or poor (mainly poor so far!). One of the branches is
the McKenzies from Falkirk. They lived in Falkirk from at least 1723 until 1854 when they
immigrated to Australia. The earliest McKenzie I have is John who married Agnes Frizall in
around 1720 and had a son Edward in 1726. The data you have made available shows how few
people were around in the area then and this gives me hope I can reach back a bit further,
it also provides more leads as to what books are available about the history of the area.
Thank-you for making this available to everyone, it's great.

I thought for a moment that I had found a common ancestor with you. I am certain that we
are related. The closest that I got is that I am descended from John Carmichael of
Lismore, born in 1790. His father was Dugald Carmichael and his mother Mary McColl. Dugald
parents were John and Mary Carmichael. In your tree, there is a John and Mary Carmichael
with a son Dugald on Lismore, but sadly it would make my Dugald a very young father. If
you'd like, I can send you my whole tree in GEDCOM format. Perhaps we can make the link.

What a wonderful site! I am looking at contributing to the work my mother and grandmothers
have done on our family lines. After getting my hands on "my" geneology book, I
realize just how much I don't know about my family history. The McGregor line they have
done goes back to John McGregor (b 1766) in Kirkburn, who married Mary Campbell, and had a
son with the excellent name of Campbell McGregor (b. 1790). After that, I guess the
research will be up to me. Can you recommend a good map or book explaining the parishes of
Scotland? Other family names are Ferguson, Douglas, Bruce, Lindsay, and Brown (there's
more, much much more). Of course, this isn't including the English Stones, Mitchells,
Longsworth, and Sheffields, Clioffords and Soars; or the Danish Joregensons and Petersons.
It's pretty overwhelming, and I thought I'd stick to the Scottish side(s) first. I'll be
back to visit again!

Great page! Just recently started looking for relatives of my father, David Wilson
Paterson Jr, born 1912 in New Jersey, USA. His father, David Wilson Paterson, was born in
Glasgow on April 23, 1885. He had three brothers, all of whom emigrated to the U.S. (New
Jersey) and were involved with setting up woolen mills in that area. The three brothers
returned to Scotland, leaving only David Wilson Paterson in the U.S. Their father was John
Paterson of Glasgow, and mother was Margaret Wood Paterson, whose maiden name was Wilson.
They were married in Glasgow in 1875. If you should run across any Patersons from this
branch, would appreciate a note. Hoping to visit Glasgow some time this year, and
certainly would like to find some living relatives!

Behind the Italian is a bit of the Scot trying to get out. Just surfing when I came across
your site, One of my gg-grandmothers was Agnes Patterson, who lived in or near Glasgow
(possibly Lesmahagow). She married a Robert Hendry in 1850s, and their son Robert, my
greatgrandfather, emigrated to the U.S. (Massachusetts) in 1882 and married Marion
Houston, of Glasgow. I doubt if there is any connection between our two families, but if
any of your guest recognize these names, would appreciate an e-mail.

Gregory
Lauder-Frost in Berwickshire, Scotland. at 15:55:32 Saturday January 10 98
Lauder surname: Black is absolutely wrong when he says our family erroneously received
lands in Berwickshire. Records confirm this plus lands in East Lothian and part of
Macbeth's lands in Moray. The Royal Burgh of Lauder took its name from the family and not
visa versa nor from the River Leader. Ancient documents show a clear distinction between
the river spelling and that of the family who erected a pele tower where the present town
now stands. The original town was further up towards Lauder Common and gravitated to the
pele when it was erected. I would be happy to write an article for you on this subject and
the surname. I am a great nephew of the late Sir Harry Lauder, and a Fellow of the Society
of Antiquaries, Scotland.

Secondly, to place information that hopefully will assist others in their own genealogical
research. Thirdly, to do this in a clear helpful manner without any confusion or a lot of
distractions. Fourthly, to enjoy the Present as well as the Past.

I am in the process of tracking the O'Grady line. I found your site ad think you have done
an outstanding job.

Wandered onto your site as I have Lismore connections (Donald McNicol, who was minister
there) and then noticed Carronshore/Falkirk and the name Hotchkies. I feel sure you must
have some connection with my folks in Carronshore. My great grandmother was Janet
Hotchkiss (b 27 Mar 1860, d. 27 Feb 1939). She was illigitimate : her mother was Annie
Hotchkis (b.27 Apr 1839) and her father was a Henry Taylor from Glasgow. Not surprisingly,
I don't know much more about him! Annie later married George Heggie, a patternmaker at the
Carron Works. Annie's parents were Cornelius Hotchkis born about 1814, a joiner, and
Hannah Marshall (born about 1820, died 19 Jun 1863). Cornelius Hotchkis's parents were
Richard Hotchkis b 1782 and Jean McDougall. Richard's parents were Cornelius Hodgcase and
Janet Stewart. My lot certainly changed the spelling of their name a lot, so a combination
of that and the use of Cornelius as a given name makes me think there must be a connection
somewhere. Unless Cornelius was a lot more common than I've been assuming! I don't have my
own email yet (will do soon), but if you think we can connect the two families you can
reach my husband at gsmyth@scigen.co.uk. Would be very interested to hear from you - maybe
we can link up the Lismore connections as well and be related twice over! Sorry this is
such an essay - I'll shut up now. Ann

Torrie in Calgary, Alberta, Canada at 21:58:31 Saturday June 14 97
Tracing Torrie family roots. Have extensive family information starting with Duncan Arthur
Torrie (born about 1837 - died about 1865 at Galt, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada). I have no
previous information on Duncan Arthur, such as birthplace, parents, siblings, etc. Duncan
Arthur Torrie married Elizabeth Hall in Ontario, Canada in about 1860. Elizabeth Hall was
born at Linlithgow, Lothianshire, Scotland.

A friend of mine has a gr. grandmother from Falkirk and I am trying to get leads on how to
find her and her family in Falkirk. I thought that you would have knowledge of how to
search that town. I believe that a Anne Kerrigan from Falkirk, Scotland came to Australia
and there married Ferens Love whose family came from Durham county in England. Do you know
any Kerrigans? They probably came from Ireland. I am trying to find a connection back to
Scotland for Anne, and the connection back to Durham County for Ferens. If you can shed
any light, we would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks.

Dr. William Bryden, the hero of the battle of Jallalabad, Afghanistan, was my great, great
uncle. I know he was born in the lowlands of Scotland about 1821, educated at the
University of London, a surgeon in Afghanistan. He was presented with the Order of the
Companion of the Bath by Queen Victoria. Have photographs taken in 1909 of my great
grandparents in Wigan, Lancashire. If you have any information on family links, please
E-mail me.

An interesting site, though I doubt very much that we are related. All I know about the
Paterson side of my family is that my great-grandparents were living in Gairloch, on the
West coast, about 1920. I think he had served in the army, probably in India.

DeCourcy in East coast USA at 8:0:29 Sunday January 26 97
I have the further (to present) Baron Kingsale info I aquired from the House of Lords if
you are interested. Also some interesting info that shows some creative developments from
24th to 25th baron. There are letters on this matter in the US Library of Congress as
well. It is also nice to add how Sir John deCourcy the Conquerer of Ireland married
Affreca the daughter of the King of Isle of Mann. Later her brother become King for a
while & he & Sir John took arms against the deLacys after they slaughtered Sir
Johns young nephews (by his brother), the many castles, churches and Abbys they built
around Ireland, as well as in Normandy where they retired to the family homes in Calvados.
There was even a half penny struck in Downpatrick in 1185 with Sir John deCourcy on one
side & St. Patrick on the other. The reverance for St. Patrick that Sir John has is
demonstrated in the lore that when he built one of his imediate fortifications in
Downpatrick that he had to move St. Patricks bones, which it is said he did so personally
and reverantly. There is reference to Sir John in the propheseys of St. Columba (as well
as of Merlin). It is said that this text was a prized possesion of Sir John's. There is
also many references to Sir John in the Historical Works of Giraldus Cambrensis & in
the Book 1 of Oderic Vitalis. I have also found related sources of info in this family in
the Doomsday book (and books about the honors), they were signers of the Magna Carta as
well. I have found books on royal ancestry of Magna Carta barons state how this line of
deCourcys traces back to Charlemagne & Alexander the Great. There are also great
sources of info on the decendants of the Magna Carta Barons which has additional family
info. It is also known that King Alexander of Scotlands second wife was a deCourcy and
their son Alexander married as his second wife a deCourcy decendant. Then there is Barbara
Tuchmans "A Distant Mirror, The Calamitous 14th century" Which traces a line of
the family that was a branch of yours that broke of around 900.

Hello Tom, I've spent the past three hours looking at the amount of work you've done on
your family history. It is quite impressive. I am an African American that's looking for
any information on the Burrell Family that lived in Aisle of Wright County, Virginia in
the USA. My Grandfather's name was Robert Burrell, and he married Janie Long from Weldon,
North Carolina sometime between 1897 and 1905. Any information or search methods that you
can suggest will be greately appreciated.
