Douglas Family of Brunette Island

The settlers on Brunette Island, who were resettled off the island within a century or so, have been brought to my attention. This was not a family, or group of families, that I had been aware of previously.

I have put together some notes about them and am now hoping that someone might be able to fill in the gaps in the story.

Where did they come from? Where did they go?

My research has produced conflicting reports of the lineage, so that needs sorting too!

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?
