It is some time since I asked a question to see if someone can help me. My G Grandfather Robert Scott emigrated to Australia arriving in 1856. Copies of shipping records show that he came from County Tyrone - Errigal Keerogue. The shipping records noted his father as Stuart and his mother as Margaret. Griffiths show a Margaret Scott in the above area, but no reference to Stuart Scott. I would assume that he may have died prior to the GV listing. I have searched all avenues that I can find on the internet without outlaying large amounts of monies but seem to have hit a wall. Ray who was with the Kiama Family History centre some time ago gave me much help early in my research as Robert lived in the Kangaroo Valley - South Coast area when he arrived in Australia. I have looked at the situation that most people with the Surname Scott would most likely have origins in Scotland, but this did not give me any leads. I also look forward to the ramblings of others and the answers given by all those that have a better understanding of the ancient systems than I do that appear in the listings as they arrive to my email. The people that give information freely should be congratulated for doing so without much chance of more than a basic thanks. Can anyone point towards where I should look next?
