A lovely healthy (almost 10 lbs!) girl, and her name is "Isla". My heart is just about bursting! Her 4X great grandparents immigrated to Fenelon township, Ontario in 1842. We'll bring her, and her big brother, back to Islay on our next visit!That's all. Now back to our interesting topic of DNA!Toni------------------------------

    3. Well, Jim, I'm just delighted by the fact that many generations away from our beloved Islay, our children still want to honour their heritage by naming their children after their ancestors' homeland. My daughter-in-law found out that "Isla" is in the top 10 names for girls in Scotland, although not so common here. I still can't wipe the smile off my face :-) Toni ________________________________________ From: sct-islay-bounces@rootsweb.com <sct-islay-bounces@rootsweb.com> on behalf of Jim BAIRD via <sct-islay@rootsweb.com> Sent: November 27, 2015 8:23 AM To: Islay List Subject: [SCT-ISLAY] SCT-ISLAY Congratulations Toni,If you Canadians keep producing at this rate there will soon be more Ileachs in Ontario than on Islay!All the bestJim
