Hi, Alan - Noting your good long entry on Griersons, I picked up on this note below, about Gilbert (nee MacGregor) Grierson. Are these Dumfriesshire MacGregors and Griersons (usually a name-change from MacGregor and meaning the same thing) related to the highland MacGregors, and if so do you know how and when? Or what Malcolm Dominus' feudal lands would have been? Just curious, (and wondering if my great-aunt might have had a point after all, in one of her alleged family connections) Muff The deceased were of the same family as the Griersons of Lag, their common ancestor having been GILBERT [nee MacGregor] GRIERSON, second son of the Celtic thane [11th feudal Lord of MacGregor] Malcolm Dominus de Macgregor, who about five hundred years ago settled in Dumfriesshire. - Unquote Muff Worden Ranargata 3 710 Seydisfjordur Iceland Phone: +354-472-1775 Mobile/Cell/GSM: +354-849-2744 Web: www.geocities.com/mworden.geo/
