Hi Carol, Unfortunatly I do not have documented proof of where exactly my ancestors came from in Scotland. My sister, however, seems to think that Klackmananshire (County?) is the place to start if and when we ever make the pilgrimage to explore our roots further. She said that many of the Bruce's were from that area. Sorry I couldn't help you more Best Regards and Happy Ancestor Hunting!
