I'd be delighted to find a link with any of my many branches. They confuse with all the christian names repeated, and there is a great lack of variety in the Sutherlandshire surnames, too. Is this of any help? Shirley > A while back you posted a list of your Bruce ancestors. This list included > Donald BRUCE married to Helen GORDON of Rogart.
