Roger Thanks for the reply, your names are from a time I am still to explore so the possibility that they could come into play cannot be dismissed. I'll keep this info and hopefully I can apply it to help me determine my lineage. I am back to the 1700's on Weir tree and none of them came from Roxburgh or Berwickshire Thanks again for your help Regards Derek >From: "Roger White" <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [SCT-EAST-LOTHIAN] Nisbet + Bathgate >Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2002 22:55:12 -0000 > >Derek, >I have a Beatrix Nisbet born about 1695 in Garvald, but this is my first >Nisbet, so info is a bit thin.
