I would love to respond to the recent communication from Rod Bruce but when I go to the gateway address there is not record of this message. I have looked on the rootweb Angus list directly and it does not show up there either. Can anyone help me out?

They both had 2 marriages... Peter had 3 children (George, Frederick and Margaret) with first wife Margery Lawson. Peter then had a further 4 children (Peter, Elizabeth, Ann and Martha) with second wife Elizabeth Thornton. Elizabeth also had 1 child (Mary Stewart) with her previous husband Alexander Stewart. Peter Bruce was christened as Patrick Bruice (according to GRO) in Littleton Airlie, one of 9 children (including a set of triplets) born to George Bruce (Bruice) and Elizabeth George. Elizabeth Thornton was one of 9 children born to John Thornton and Ann Doig (ref www.doig.net/GEOX1685). I believe I have a good handle on Isabella Leighton's ancestors as well. Please contact me to share trees and info etc. Thanks, Rod Bruce Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi Catherine, It seems to be a glitch at Rootsweb/Ancestry. I tried to "Report Abuse" to alert the admin/staff of the problem, but that itself was problematic. There was a reported problem similar to this a while ago, but I thought that was all sorted. I can't tell whether this is the same problem or something else. If you want to follow it up, you could contact the board admin (see "Board Information" on the right of the board page), and if you get no joy there go to the Help Desk. I administer other boards and lists at Rootsweb, which is how I know of the past problems. But this one is not mine. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Howard -- Kaiwaka, Northland, New Zealand http://wendy.howard.googlepages.com/ <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/%7Ewendyh65/> ----- Original Message ----- *From:* <catherinekunkel@charter.net> *To:* gc-gateway@rootsweb.com, angus@rootsweb.com *Sent:* 08/04/2009 5:26:53 AM +1200 *Subject:* [ANGUS] Peter Bruce m.
