You shouldn't need hard evidence of that, since most Mc and Mac names sometimes dropped the Mc and Mac. If someone is requiring you to prove it, they probably won't believe it if you do.

I believe that the name of Dill sometimes became a fixed name among a family that was originally McDill. Does anybody still have access to the 1684 Wigtownshire and Minnigaff Parish Lists? I think McDill and Dill were used indifferently on the 1684 parish lists? Perhaps someone knows of another record where the names of McDill and Dill were used indifferently? ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
