Hi EveryoneI've recently discovered a new 3rd cousin who has Partick and Clydebank connections.Her Mother was Euphemia Baird Dewar .She didn't have a lot of info so I did some research for her using Scotlands People.She is descended from Alexander Dewar and Elizabeth Whitelaw Gemmell.They were married 1912 in Partick ,county of Lanarkshire. Alexanders parents were William Dewar and Euphemia Baird. Any connections out there ???CheersFrank McGonigal Ont.Canada.~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Isn't that just super, Frank! As I've remarked before, Malcolm on the Wigtown list, does fantastic research for me, the latest being photos of my father's half-cousin in England in his garb as a Freemasonry Worshipful Master. I didn't even know that this branch of my father's family existed until Malcolm unearthed them. It's really quite heartening as the tree expands. I now have over 1,700 names on the Family Tree Maker, some 'outlaws' married to blood relatives, i.e. They're a bit of a problem in taxing my memory, however. I'm amused that sometimes your family name Dewar (as in Dewar's whisky) is pronounced DeWar, and Gilchrist as GilChrist here in California!
