I have been attempting to locate information of the GORDON's that migrated from Scotland to Ireland (more particularly, Roscommon) for about 4 years now. In that time, I have posted requests on various lists, specifically every Gordon list. I have received about 2 replies to several hundred posts. I cannot believe that there are not any Gordon's out there that doesn't have any information. I have gotten more information from my maternal side that from my paternal side. I wonder how many others out there are in the same boat!!!!!! If anyone has information on the Gordon's that went to Ireland, I would appreciate a reply. Thanks, Tom Gordon

We have the same problem .My forbears came from Mayo and I can trace the name Gordon back to 1817,but the trail goes cold .We can't find hide nor hair of the Gordons before that .All my relatives remember being told that the Gordons came from Scotland ,but there is not one document to substantiate this .You're not alone .Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: <ThickMick1@aol.com> To: <GORDON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2001 11:52 AM Subject: Seeking Assistance from GORDON's > I have been attempting to locate information of the GORDON's that migrated > from Scotland to Ireland (more particularly, Roscommon) for about 4 years > now.
