A collection of historical and genalogical records
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?

Thank you, Sue, for your offer of help.
There is apparently a connection between the photograph captioned ';John Ross c1860' and 'John Douglas of New Zealand'. I hope to be able to find out what that is.
But a new question arose yesterday:
Whetu Douglas (born 18 April 1991), the New Zealand rugby union player, is the grandson of the vocalist/guitarist Angus Douglas, a former Maori All Black. Who are their ancestors?
Yours aye,
William
