Hi Everyone, I'm not sure yet where in the UK our ancestors came from but this quote from Robert Louis Stevenson is really great for genealogy buffs. Iris "For that is the mark of the Scot of all classes: that he stands in an attitude towards the past unthinkable to Englishmen, and remembers and cherishes the memory of his forebears, good or bad; and there burns alive in him a sense of identity with the dead even to the twentieth generation."
