Welcome Ruthie- I wish you luck in finding your relatives. But, do you have any information on the Paxton's in Scotland or England. That is I (and I believe many others) have can not find much information once the family leaves the states. Thank you!

Sorry I haven't been in touch before now but I've been sick with the flu. My maiden name is Paxton and I grew up in Scotland. I'm looking for any relatives that might still be in Scotland or in England. My grandfather was James William Paxton, he was killed during world war 1 in France. He had a brother who emigrated to Chicago and it is his family I am trying to locate. My grandfather had a brother Tom, and a brother George, a sister named Jane and a sister named Annie. They all lived in Fauldhouse, near Edinburgh, in Scotland and I knew them when I was a child. Sadly they are all dead now but I would like to get in touch with any of their family members. I also know of Jane's son whose name was Charlie, he was in the London Police force and his son is also called Charlie. Thank you for any help you can give me.
