To all:- This is my first posting -- so please bear with me!! On my mother's side of the family, I am only able to go back as far as my gr.gr.grandparents on one side. James MacKenzie Davis of Liverpool, England, was the son of John Davis and Lady Jane MacKenzie, Scotland. This latter couple would be gr.gr.grandparents -- and I have learned John Davis was a merchant trader with over 12 vessels sailing to all parts of the world. Parentage unknown. John Davis married Lady Jane MacKenzie of Scotland -- and as he was a commoner, not even DeBrett's Defunct Peerage lists Lady Jane. It is as if she never existed. However, within the family, her memory has been kept alive -- my grandmother was named Jane, an aunt received the unlikely middle name of MacKenzie. Sincerely hoping someone knows of this lady or couple, plus their family -- as there were four children I am told. Muriel M.

Hi Muriel, Do you have any idea or even any thoughts as to where your Lady Jane MacKenzie came from in Scotland? Christine ----- Original Message ----- From: "Muriel M.

Christine:- I have absolutely no idea, but it was not the northern part of Scotland. Even a place would be a clue.
