Lanarkshire Angus Moray and Rossshire

Post by AlannaGrace » Fri Mar 20, 2015 12:59 am

Hello, I would be interested if others are researching the following names. I have gone back a few generations in each but have brick walls here and there:

Salmond, Forsyth, Haddow and Hamilton, Gartshore and Aitken - Lanarkshire
McDonald/Macdonald, Sinclair and Miller - Angus
Stewart and Smith from Moray

Hello AlannaGrace and a warm welcome [talkingscot]

While we wait to see if any one is working on families you have named, there are some posts related to Salmond and Harrow names (and probably some of the others). You can locate items by using the search option at the upper right side of the page immediately below the wide blue banner.

There are several options for use in locating terms alone, in combination or by poster, etc.

Hope you find your visit to be worthwhile. We are open to helping where needed and offer suggestions on 'next steps' and helping each other 'think out loud'

Thank you Frances, I had tried the search facility, but it appeared apart from one, most were very old posts. I was hoping to refresh these names by the new post.

Yes thanks Jen. I was actually able to give them more information than they had for my Scottish ancestors so no steps forward there.

I think what most people don't realise about Libindx is that you should keep checking it
every so often as information is added all the time.
