A collection of historical and genalogical records
Amongst those recognised by the Queen in the New Year Honours list 2014 are:
The Rt Hon David Alexander Cospatrick Douglas-Home, the Earl of Home CVO, CBE who has been appointed to the Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle, and
Anthony John William Douglas. Music Teacher, Morley College, London was awarded an MBE for services to Further Education. (London)
Congratulations to them both.
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?
