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?

The War of 1812 is not well covered in the Douglas Archives - but should be. It would be good if someone could write up an article??
So, that is where we begin! And it is a very good place the start...
Jonathon, what clues do you have? Dates and places help. So does knowledge of his employment. Was he in the armed forces? (Does US army refer to him - or you?) And who was the musician?
Do you know your grandmother's details? Someone may he researching her line, and have come across your grandfather's details.
