Dear Celia, Remember, I don't know anything about your research, but jumping from TN straight to Scotland or England sounds incredibly vague to me. Have you exhausted all the other avenues first, such as following George Greenberry Mckenzie's collateral lines and checking as much about the location's you know he lived in before crossing the ocean? I just heard these points pointed out in a recent seminar and it made sense to me.
