Hello,
I am looking information on parents and siblings of William Taylor, sheriff/clerk of Dornoch, born in Tain.1778. If the family stories are correct then it should somehow link up with my tree starting from William Taylor and Margaret Forsyth married in St. Andrews, Lhanbryd 1843.
This is my tree:

Hello Dennis,

Yes that's the same one. Do you have anything more on this tree? I am working on the assumption that it's probably one of William Taylor's brothers that we are descended from. If you know who they were I'd be happy and even happier if you happened to have the whole tree.

Best wishes,

Tony Savery

Tony. IGI lists the following as siblings of William:

Margaret Taylor 18 DEC 1771 Tain, Ross And Cromarty, Scotland

Andrew Taylor 08 AUG 1780 Tain, Ross And Cromarty, Scotland

Hugh Taylor 03 MAY 1769 Tain, Ross And Cromarty, Scotland

I'll see later if I can locate more info for you.

Hi Dennis,
That looks something like it. I had heard that William had three brothers, but I had not been able to come up with them up till now. I seemed to have drawn a blank on the Morman website although I don't think that it's always complete or accurate. If you do manage anymore that would be fantastic.
Thanks for your help,
Tony Savery
