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?

Welcome to our group, Sara.
I am a Douglas, but my maternal grandmother was a Burns, so I would be interested to see if we have any connections.
I have a note that Jesse might be the son of Thomas Douglas and Edith Thompson, but also have a big question mark against that. Thomas (born about 1779 in Virginia) is the son of Rodham Douglas Sr. and Magdaline Lewis.
There is an interesting record of the family on the Douglas Cemetery website: http://www.arkansaspreservation.com/arkansas-register-listings/douglas-cemetery
Yours aye,
William
