Hello William,
Thank you for adding me to your group my great grandfather was Edward Douglas who married Te Korowhiti Tuataka in New Zealand.
I believe Edwards father's name was Adam landells. I am not yet sure who his mother was. I have only just started researching!
I thought the Douglas family in New Zealand was big. I see the Douglas clans are humongous!

Welcome to our group, Waimarie.

I assume this is your family:

Adam Landell(s) (b. 1813, Alnwick. d. 1883 in NZ) and Margaret Douglas (b., Alnwick(?)). Apparently they married in 1832 (supposedly Gretna Green, but no records seem to exist). Margaret died at sea in 1849 on the Ship Douglas. They had 8 children. Adam remarried in 1850 to Elizabeth Dibbs in Adelaide, Australia. I believe Adam was a gardener at Alnwick Castle

 
 
 

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?
