Frank, All three of the specific things mentioned (and many others not mentioned) are very commonly accepted practices on every RootsWeb list, and are part of something rather generically referred to as "list netiquette." Now, whether all lists in fact have the problems to the degree that we do here is another question, but on that note as I have already mentioned, with a list as busy and large as this one the problem is compounded by the sheer number of posts and quickly filling up the archives as you yourself mentioned. I believe I DID explain that, but I hope this answers the question. Now, please let this be the last discussion on the matter on the list, because it really is not a matter for discussion. As with all things, rules are made for the overall good of all, or in this case for the good of the list itself, and I thank one and all for your cooperation in this regard. David E.

Hi Alastair, I can guarantee you, that, at least in Coatbridge, MacDonald is not the only name! A Large number of my Lindsay line were born and lived there for most of their lives. I have 14 deaths specifically in Coatbridge, and another 17 in Old Monkland, and there is still much digging to do on this Lindsay line. And births: 58 in Old Monkland, and 62 in Coatbridge, another 6 in Gartsherrie. As for McDonald (or Mac, whichever you prefer): Janet LAMBIE m. William McDonald, around 1910-1920. Lizzie CULLEN m. Finlay McDonald, 1922 Wishaw - which is near Old Monkland. Henry J. McDonald, born Victoria, Aussie, 2006. & Daisy A. McDonald in 2002 to Cameron McDonald and Simone Lindsay.

Hi Archibald I too am forever stuck with Airdrie. My Mum and Dad were both born in Airdrie and also escaped to Brisbane but every uncle, aunt, grand whatever and great grand whatever was born, married or died in Airdrie. They were either miners, weavers, tubeworkers or brickmakers. Some escaped to go to America but I can't find many who came to Australia. I don't have any McDonalds in my tree (yet) but I do have some certificates for some McDonalds. Maybe if you list the families you are researching, I might have a connection Cheers Jim Armstrong jimarmstrong59@hotmail.com Researching - Armstrong, Smith, McIlroy, Mark, Hare (Airdrie Scotland and Ireland) Burns, Walker, Little, Boyle (Airdrie Lanarkshire Scotland) Beck, Madsen (Queensland & Denmark ) Dicks, Waller (Queensland & Gloustershire England) Trimble, Kirkland, Black, Bryen (NSW & Ireland) > > Message: 4 > Date: Tue, 03 Aug 2010 11:39:23 +1000 > From: Alastair Macdonald <alectts@optusnet.com.au> > Subject: [Lanark] Introducing me and Macdonalds in Airdrie. > To: LANARK@rootsweb.com > Message-ID: <4C57734B.9080406@optusnet.com.au> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed > > Hello all you Lanarkadians.

Hi everybody, I'm a new member of the list, researching my ancestors in Lanark. Right now I'm concentrating on the McGill family from Penicuik and Culter. A very recent find was that my ggg grandfather John McGill [born 1793 in Penicuik] was the Master Blacksmith at Culter House in the 1850s and 60s according to the Census . It was a real thrill to learn where he worked and what he did. And what a beautiful place to call home! John McGill was married to Christian Johnston(e), daughter of Robert and ?. His parents were Thomas McGill and Elisabeth Greig and he was one of 10 children. I've had great success with Ancestry.com and the LDS site but there are still a lot of blanks to fill in and I look forward to talking with all of you. Jeanne

During the period of time I have been Admin of this list, I have noticed it to be one of the most helpful lists I am familiar with. With well over 700 subscribers, folks help each other in so many different ways, and that always makes a List Admin's efforts so much more enjoyable, and I suspect that has a lot to do with why this list has so many loyal subscribers. Many are quite knowledgeable and always willing to help others who are. . .well, not so knowledgeable but eager to learn and seeking help. That said, my reason for posting this is to discuss one of the problematic area evolving from this very large and busy list, and ask for the overall help of all subscribers in resolving it. With any list as large and active as this one any problem tends to get magnified and out of hand rather easily, and we are no different in that respect. I have tried personally monitoring posts in the past, returning them to subscribers asking that they be modified, but this always gets folks upset with me. L Also, to put my own situation into perspective, this is not my JOB as many of you seem to believe. I am just a volunteer with an avid interest in genealogy, just like most of you, and though I don't have "a real job" any more (I'm retired) I do have a family with grandkids (and 2nd great-grandchild due this month) and most of the family responsibilities that most of you have, including my own genealogy research. I administer lists because I enjoy doing it, and have made a lot of long standing friends doing so. The most common problem areas are as follows: 1. When replying to a post back to the list, the post you are replying to needs to be edited leaving ONLY a brief portion of it directly pertaining to your reply. PLEASE NOTE - If the taglines (the bottom lines put on all posts by RootsWeb) are still on the previous post, they need to be deleted because the system will put another set on your own post causing duplication. 2. Additionally to #1 above, editing the reply is doubly important for those of you subscribing in digest format. Not only do you need to edit the digest when replying, but PLEASE also remember not to reuse the digest subject line, and change it to something relative to the subject of your reply. 3. Please stick to the list topic in all on-list postings. This is pretty self-explanatory, and in a few words the appropriate list topic is the genealogy of Lanarkshire, Scotland. That covers a pretty broad spectrum of topics, but we still manage to stray off topic more often than we should. The three areas above seem to be the most common, but there are others. If we can make some progress in those areas alone, it will really make a big difference. I know it seems to some that I am only being petty in even mentioning this, and a couple of you have called me a "list dictator" (and worse! L ) after having posts rejected, but on a list this large and active this causes problems most of you are unaware of, so PLEASE let's see if we can return things back closer to what they should be. We do not live in a perfect world, and this list will never be perfect in that respect either, but we very much need to at least make some progress in that respect. David E.

Hello all you Lanarkadians. My name is Archibald Alastair Macdonald and I have only recently begun my "family tree" adventure. I was born in Airdrie in 1941 but was aware that my family had originated in the outer isles. I discovered that they had migrated from Stornoway to the original "banks of Clyde" and were later "re-settled" in the Monkland area (for then this appeared to mean Airdrie or Coatbridge). Since then, it would appear that all my relatives have been born, grew up, married, reproduced and (in many cases) died and were buried in either "Old" or New" Monkland cemetery. Except me who managed to escape the local orbit and descend upon a new planet called Australia. In conclusion; would it be true to say that almost the entire population of Airdrie and Coatbridge have Macdonald as a surname? Any comments from the locally well-connected? Alastair Macdonald Brisbane, Australia.

> In conclusion; would it be true to say that almost the entire > population > of Airdrie and Coatbridge > have Macdonald as a surname? Any comments from the locally > well-connected? Absolutely not, though I can well understand your frustration. I did a quick check of the 1881 census CD-ROM. There were 331 M(a)cdonalds among the 37,502 people in Old Monkland, and 170 among the 27,928 people in New Monkland. Total 501 of 65,430 - fewer than 1%. M(a)cdonald must be one of the most challenging names to research in Scotland. According to 'Personal Names in Scotland', published by the Registrar General for Scotland in 1991, MacDonald was the 10th commonest, and McDonald the 32nd most common, surname in Scotland in 1990. Added together, they are 3rd commonest after Smith and Brown. Then of course there are the variants, and the fact that the name originates in areas where the records tended to be less well kept. Anne
