Chris, I will take a look at that site tomorrow. I don't know where you live, but plenty of people have dropped the "Mac/Mc" over the years, especially if they crossed the pond. It wouldn't hurt to find out where his ancestors came from. They don't always respond to our emails though. SIGH!

Any thoughts on these results? Should I start maybe looking harder at the MacLean line?

Allene, Funny thing about that, I had few search results until I added an O' to my name => O'Morrison. That opened a whole new avenue of research!

I am the first kit number listed and just paid to prove my earliest known ancestor, Jesse Graham, was born in North Carolina in 1781. In process of hiring a NC genealogist to help go further back. I just joined the email link today and believe this will help in my search.
