Profile Information

Which Douglas line are you researching? Dates and places help making connections.
william alexander Grodon Doublas *1880-1948), son of Richard Stanford Douglas (d. 1970, Westbury, Tasmania) and his wife Florence (Flora) Isabel Douglas (1882-1964), daughter of Peter John Douglas (1847-1915) and Annie Isabel,, both buried in New Ground Cemetery, Devonport, Tasmania.
My question is: where they cousins, and if so, first, second or third? I think I have ruled out first cousins, but cannot verify the link.
Who is your earliest known Douglas ancestor?
My family tree is Hungerford, and we are preparing a pedigree, which includes the Loane family, from which the Hungerfords have multiple links. the Douglas family married into the Loane family through Mary Alexander Loane, in 1870, Westbury, Tasmania.

Their common ancestor is Admiral Billy Douglas by his wife, Ann Weatherall. He was their great, great grandfather.

Peter John Douglas, father of Flora, who married Annie Isabel Chamberlen, was the son of Henry Douglas and Janet Whyte.

Henry was the son of Henry Osbourne Douglas and Eleanor Crabtree.

Henry Osbourne Douglas and Peter John Douglas, who married Lydia Moriarty, were the sons of the Admiral.

Peter and Lydia had a son, Roddam Hulke Douglas, who married Mary Selina Lanslow.

Their son, Richard Stanford Douglas married Mary Alexander Loane, whom you know.

 
 
 

Making conections

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?
