The Douglas Archives

A collection of historical and genalogical records

Douglas families of Stoneykirk and Two Mark

I have spent a few days collating and compiling a collection of papers supplied to me on the Wigtonshire Douglas families of Stoneykirk and Two Mark and their many descendants and relatives.

I have probably put them in the wrong order, and suffer from some missing sections.  However, they fill many gaps in the Douglas Archives which I now will work through.

Several members of this forum have Wigtonshire connections, so I hope that this may fill some of the gaps in their knowledge too.

Family history of James Robert Douglas

I have not properly researched the Wigtonshire families, who spread far and wide.  Their history should be told!  Any volunteers?

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?
