about a year ago i posted to the list about a possble family connection to MARY GARDEN, opera singer from Aberdeen i now have more info on this line although i have not made that family connection to my GARDENS from the same area i would be intersted in communicating with anyone whose ancestry and lineage is part of the Mary Garden tree. You may reply "off list" or share your info on the list i hope this topic of conversation and sharing of research will be useful to other Mary Garden researchers. Sometimes that link originates from the allied families in the tree! Previous postings on Rootsweb and other forums in past years have discussed Mary Garden but all emails for those people are are part of her family line are longer active Schani Biermann canada
