My immigrant ancestor, Robert Dickie, was purportedly born in Dalry, Ayrshire, Scotland. He was 38 in 1870 and married to Mary Patrick, also of Dalry. I've since heard that Dickies are thick on the ground around Kilmarnock and points north in Ayrshire, also in Aberdeenshire. I don't see the connection at all. Any Dickies out there from either shire?
