Hello List - Have researching Cruickshank family (my mother's family) from Kincardineshire/Inverness area of Scotland. She asked me about finding a Cruickshank family from Detroit, Mich area. She met a woman/girl from there in Wash DC during the 1940's who was also working there. Pertaining to ancestral research, I've gotten back to a Hector Cruickshank, born early 1700's. I'm decended fro his son Peter who emigrated to Pictou, NS in 1780's. Hector's wife was a Mary MacDonald.
