A brief family history is here>>>
Hi John,
The Familysearch website is the biggest free genealogical website in the world.
To search their records for family information you will need to register with the website:
https://ident.familysearch.org/identity/login/
Once you are registered you can log in & do a people search - on the top left of the page there is a search drop-down menu, choose family tree and this will lead you to another search page where you have two choices Find by name or
Find by ID, choose the find by ID option and put in KLY2-XW3, which is the familysearch indentifier for Samuel Marksberry, and then search
Click on 'Samual Marksberry' and a box will pop up, click on tree and this will take you to the tree which contains samuel. You can then explore all the individuals in the tree, access and download their records etc. Also if you have better info than is already in the tree you can modify the tree, but be careful as the tree is the work of other individuals.
A lot of the stuff on Ancestry is copied from Familysearch
Good luck & best regards
Hi John & welcome,
I found a Samuel Marksbury on the Familysearch website:
Samuel Marksberry Male 1790 – 1849 • KLY2-XW3
Quite a large family tree there and some useful source material but cannot see a link to Douglas?
Best regards
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?
