I have Scots ancestors who lived in Ireland. Is there a way to find when the left Scotland to go to Ireland and where they came from in Scotland? The names are MOFFATT and MORRISON. Elizabeth (Bessie) MOFFATT, daughter of Robert and Mary Moffatt, was born in Tullylig, Northern Ireland in approximately 1815. Elizabeth (Bessie) MOFFATT married Robert MORRISON of Tullylig, son of William MORRISON. I know both of these families were originally from Scotland. Where? When? Who parents? Many thanks, Joan

We do are quite sure the Cunninghams left from County Roscommon for Nova Scotia around 1750-60, but would like to get them back a generation or 3 in Scotland. cheers from Dutch Thompson on Prince Edward Island searching CUNNINGHAM HENDERSON SMITH > >==== BORDER Mailing List ==== >The Border Names Newsletter contact boglelodge@yahoo.com for details. > > >
