Lost crest in Italy?

On my visit to Piacenza I searched for this armorial unsuccessfuly.

I was told that I was in the centre of the Douglas Scotti area of the city and that there were lots of family palaces - but that did not help!

Thanks to blog DouglasHistory, and family genealogy.

Kicked off Wiki, Wikitree, and FTDNA. Great to be on Douglas's blog. Chief Margaret Eliott of Redheugh, whose land was gifted to the clan by "Bell the Cat" Douglas, is great not to be kicked off Douglas's blog.

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?
