Hi, Andrea! My line from Mary Dunnet runs from her son Magnus, so I hadn't pursued the Dunnets any further than just noting Christian Baikie/Thomas Dunnet's children. Also, the children of Christian's brother Walter Baikie, who married a Catherine Dunnet, born the same year as Thomas. I don't have parentage for either of them -- do you? It's possible that Thomas and Catherine could have been twins. And yes, I would like more on this line -- thanks! Linda * * * * * Andrea A.
