I am having a horrible time connecting my Douglass lineage. I am going to Scotland in September and would love some help.
The last Douglass I am sure of is William W Douglass, b. abt 1755 in Lancaster Co., PA and d. Nov 1792, Madison Co., KY. He was married to Jane Moore, b. 1762, Lancaster Co., PA and d. 1830, Boone, MO. Any help with connecting me to ancestors in Scotland is appreciated, thank you Judy
The more information you can give about the people you mention, the more chance there is of someone else connecting with your family.
Dates and places of births, deaths and marriages all help to place families.
Professions also help.
'My great-grandmother mother was a Douglas from Montrose' does not give many clues to follow up! But a bit of flesh on the bones makes further research possible. But if we are told who she married, what his profession was and where the children were baptised, then we can get to work.
Maybe it is time to update the information in your profile?

Welcome to our group, Judy.
Is this the Samuel H. Douglas, said to be from Howard county, Missouri, who settled in Chilhowee township, Johnson Co., Missouri, in 1832?
I have a note that he was born in about 1726 either in Scotland or possibly Albemarle Co., Virginia. So was he just passing through Missouri? He died before 1850 in Chilhowee.
