Hi Johan, I think the List members would be interested to know which company you used and which type of test.

I have just embarked on an Ancestry DNA test. Exciting results. It identified one of my Keith cousins, but also a number of other matches to Islay names. But it will be a lot of work to try to establish the common ancestor. Just thought I would post my direct ancestors again to see if there are any new connections that I don't know about. John Keith b 1795, father Nicol Keith b 1765, mother Mary Brown b 1765? Ann Campbell b 1810 wife of JK above, father Alexander Campbell b 1770, mother Mary Sinclair b 1775. Mary Sinclair above, father John Sinclair b 1740, mother Catherine McCuaig. RegardsJohan
Johan, Just to confirm that I have in my data all the persons you list below, although I do not have direct descent from them. Alex Keith (son of John and Ann below) married Jean Morrison, a "cousin" of my Morrison line. I have slightly different dates for the group below, some of the dates from yourself a dozen years ago. I will write to you off-List.

Islay Records I'm not sure what all the problems are with accessing the Islay site re Ted Larson's page. I just type in Isle of Islay Index Pages then click on Ted Larsen's site. I've had no problem getting access to the records. No one has pulled or stolen these records. I see no reason why Scotlandspeople would have a problem with this site as a lot of the info is already on Freecen and Free registration etc.It's not as if we are a for profit organization selling this info to make money it is simply a site that has been built up over the years with hard work from many people who have given their time and effort to provide a great genealogy research tool for free. If the Finlaggan site hasn't objected, why would Scotlandspeople!
