Find Ancestors

PM from Theresa:

Hi, thank you for responding. We are looking for the Scottish ancestry and beyond. Mum has lived the Australian side of it and I am helping her. She has most of the Australian info although there has been some "unknown" births revealed yet no luck in finding documents to support. We were having difficulty finding George's parents and i told mum the dates must be wrong. I will talk to her when she gets back to my place and work out our plan from there. I truly did not imagine the great response we have had. Once again, thank you.
Regards
Theresa

I Greatly appreciate the efforts and information submitted by members. Thank you for all information. I will update info and start searching again. Regards, Theresa Fisher and Lorraine (Wallace).
