New to the list – Looking for any BRIER(S) information in the region of the Tyne – especially Alexander BRIER(S) and family c1769. This is a new avenue of research which I am hoping will breakdown a ‘brick wall’ – Family stories relate to a ‘Scotch Alex’ coming from ‘north of the Tyne’ and there is an IGI entry for Alexander BRIER(S) being born in Scotland 9 September 1769 although this is likely to be an entry by his Mormon Pioneer descendants. Any information relating to the BRIER(S) families would be sincerely appreciated. Kevin P. Dodson Yorksgen List Admin --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
