Seeking Cape Fear Geddie's c.1772-1800, particularly children of Alexander Geddie of Scotland, whose son James Daniel Geddie with spouse Ann McKeithan migrated to North Carolina 1772. Known Scottish Geddie locations: Banff; Speymouth; Fife. The Geddie family is oft-married to McPhail. Questioned variant spellings: Gedy, Gaddy, Geddes, Geddins (have found no link to date of connection to Getty or Gatty, who I've been informed may derive from Delgetty/Delgatty). A mystery is that James Daniel may have landed with "two brothers," who are currently unknown and of course drive a stake in a strong genealogy. James Daniel's participation in Revolution and his son "Big" John Geddie, Sr's subsequent migration to Cumberland County is documented. My take on the Geddie ancestry, as currently known, is located at GeddieWorld site: http://www.booksphere.com/gedworld/ Many thanks, Lawrence in Georgia
