Hi all, I have been reading with interest all your postings re your brick walls. Sorry I can;t help you with any of these, but for those of you interested in Irish/Scotish research I can recommend the nir-down-list. I remember there was a big discussion a couple of moonths ago about the Ulster Plantation, which for those of you who don't know, is where Scotish families were voluntarily relocated to various parts of Ulster (Northern Ireland). You should be able to search the archive of this list for the above subject. By the way Dutch (from Nova Scotia) I'm married to an Irish Cunningham and my maiden name was Henderson (sorry no Smith's on either side of the family). :-)) My brick wall at the moment is Jane Gibson chr 14th May 1775 at Ladykirk. Can't find any information on her parents. Cheers, Kate
Kate, where would we look for this Ulster Plantation list?
