Friends (Quaker) Meeting, Gordon Memorial Hall, St. Ninian Episcopalian Church Castle Douglas, Scotland

It is probably bad enough for those Grahams, that I think a lot of the Armstrong, an indigenous Scotland pitch-in people, that I'm a Quaker the type George Fox convinced of the Harden family which Walter Scot said in French was jailed in Edinburgh Prison. Probably don't gain status amongst the Douglas, but there is a Quaker Meeting at "Gordon" Memorial Hall, of Saint Ninian (Elwald) (Anglican) Episcopal Church, in CASTLE DOUGLAS, Scotland.…

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.

Own and operate elwald.com, clancrozier.com, and gorrenberry.com. I guess they'll have to contact me to kick me off the 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?
