Hi Michelle

Welcome to TS, I'm sure you'll find people on the site very helpful and encouraging. I have no connection to your family, but I do come from Lochwinnoch, which you mention in your post. If you don't know it, it's a very nice wee village on the western extremity of Renfrewshire.

Cheers and good luck with your searching.
