Does anyone know a contact for someone in the town of Chapelford, Enzie, Banff(Moray), Scotland or Wellshead, Enzie, Moray/Banff...a church would be great. I cannot seem to find any reference to these towns on the net. I need to find archives from a local church. Thanks. Donna ***************************************************** Donna L.

Looking for the children of Alexander Murdoch and Helen Innes, m. May 27, 1762 registered in Bellie, Moray but all the children were born in Wellshead, Enzie, Banffshire, Scotland. I believe that all events in this town were registered in Bellie, Moray at that time. Thanks so much. Donna ***************************************************** Donna L.

Hello Donna, my name is Sue Kado and I too am researching the Scott family in Banffshire. My ggrandfather, b 1859 was William Clapperton Scott. He emigrated to the USA about 1890. His father was William Reid Scott, b. 1824, married Mary Geddes. I have more information, including many old photos of these people I would gladly share if you think there is a connection. Contact me at sue@2ndstr.com Many thanks in advance. Sue

Thanks very much for your reply, will watch for your kin as well. Dave Howe

Hi Dave, Thank you for your response. I don't have very much information on the ROSS connection, but Mary ROSS married William BIRSE (b c 1778 - Aboyne) on Nov. 11, 1804 in Strachan, Kincardineshire, Scotland. We know of 2 children - Alexander and William. I continue to look!! I'll keep this on file, and if I ever find a Gilcrest/Killecres/Killicross connection, will get in touch with you.

I noticed in your post you are searching for your Ross kin. So am I. Have you come across the name Gilcrest/Killecres/ Killicross in your search of Scottish records? He immigrated to Ipswich, MA in the 1660's, but I have no information on his ancestors or where he came from in Scotland. If any of your Ross ancestors are related to Gilcrest, let me know and we can swap information. Dave Howe Florida

I am seeking descendants of George and Marion McKAY/MACKAY. Lived No 8 Guthrie street, in Greyfriars, Edinburgh,Scotland. In the 1881 census George was 53, born 11th June,1827. George was a Type Founder [as was his father John and at least 2 brothers.... Walter and Francis]. Known issue: [of George and Marion], Elizabeth C., aged 25 in 1881, and working as an Elementary Teacher. Isabella, aged 22, and working as a shopgirl [Tobacconist]. Parents of George McKAY were John and Annie WATSON. Parents of Annie were Alexander and Margaret. If the above details seem familiar please contact me. If there are questions you'd like to ask.... please contact me..... soon, I am running out of time/life! Regards, Mary shortis@spot.com.au

I am fairly new to SCOT-ROOTS and my main interest is my DUNBAR line and I wonder if the following details strike any chords with anyone? My gt.grandfather was Henry DUNBAR born 20 Feb 1853 in Manchester. His father was George DUNBAR who would have been born about 1830/1 [in Manchester according to the 1871 census]. On his marriage certificate he gives his father as Henry DUNBAR a baker. The only IGI entry which may fit is that of the baptism of George DUNBAR on 23 July 1830 at Rafford, Moray the parents being Henry DUNBAR and Ann JUNKEN. They had other children - Alexander, Ann, Jane and Lewis. I cannot be certain yet that this bapt refers to my George and as yet have been unable to search for a baptism anywhere in the Manchester parish registers. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Margaret North, Preston, Lanc's

I am searching for any scrap of ancestral material on Gilchrist aka Killicres, Killecross Ross. He arrived in Ipswich, MA in the early-mid 1600s and married Mary Gally of Beverly, MA. It is believed he was b. abt 1635, d. 1682-3 in Ipswich, Mary b. 1640, d. 1719/20, Ipswich. I have extensive information on his American descendants, but nothing on his Scottish Roots. I would be interested in hearing from Anyone researching the above clan who would be willing to share any information on Gilchrist and his ancestors. I will be glad to share what I have on this family with anyone who responds. D. Howe, Florida
