Jeannie, Sorry, I have no information on Jane Lyle's ancestors. There were 1195 Lyles in Lowland Scotland in 1881, 346 of them living in Renfrewshire. I do have a note of 7 other Lyles who married Houstons - but no info on any of their parents. Regards Charles --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
