Hi Helen, A SHERET married into my line as far back as 1850s, and my grandmother b 1894 stayed with them in Herefordshire ca 1902/1912. I've never known any personally. I have checked through all my records and have to say that there arent too many David SHERET names. Might I suggest that you contact the list owner of the named SHERET list to which I referred earlier, and ask there. Could you perhaps look up the phone directory in Edinburgh. Good Luck.

He married a rather close cousin, Helen Forbes Ritchie (b.1918 Kincardine) but I know nothing about David. They may both be still living yet and if so, I'd love to contact them or at least know about them. I believe they may have been in Edinburgh in the 1970's but that is possibly wrong. > > Hope you know them - have been trying to find them for years. > Helen > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Donna Mollin > To: SCT-KINCARDINE-L@rootsweb.com > Sent: Monday, March 13, 2006 10:21 AM > Subject: RE: [SCT-KINCARDINE] SHERET > > > Hi Janet, I'm from the Birse line, Charles Birss/Birse - parents - George > (Sherret) Birse and Mary Laurence.
