It should be noted that Gorrenberry is not in the hands of the Ellot, is is after Border Pacification. My family in 1630 is on the County Fermanagh, Ulster, Ireland, muster, of Monea Castle of a widow Mrs Hamilton,  Charles II, Anglican Royalists, of a Somerville family strong house of Tullykelter. Became a Cromwelling POW to Harvard Puritans, the Stone family of Cambridge. John Stone of Stone's End, Saxoniville, Framingham, MA is buried in the Old Harvard Cemetery as oldest son next to his father I understand, that of Gregory Stone. Though linguistically speaking towards the Scot of James VI of Scotland and James I of England, and the Bauld Buccleuch a descendant of Sir Walter Scot the Duke of Buccleuch, family of Mt Ayr, of course like Abe (a name the Jewish people do not seem to use for their children, but now deceased brother Bob has son called Abe for Abraham), Abe Lincoln we like Bobby Burns which wrote in the Scotch. Seems like those Crozier like the name Quinton.

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?
