Margaret Douglas Stewart, my G G G Grandmother ,Deeside, married Alexander Rust,

, ancestor of Sir James Douglas via Margaret Douglas Stewart,John Rust's mother

I would love to see a family tree that anyone done a family tree or have photos etc ?

My G.G.Grand father John Rust came from Aberdeen in 1851 to New Zealand and married Isobel Mearns also from Montrose (father was Captain Mearns )
the ancestral connection is written in the History book written by Alexanda Rust (Johns son) "Whangarei and Districts Early Reminiscences"1935 , now republished; Johns father was also an Alexander Rust.
my Great Grandmother was Rosalind/Rose Turney (nee Rust ..John's daughter)

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?
