A collection of historical and genalogical records

Killed on last day of the war

Private A. Douglas, of the 1st battalion The Cameronians was a soldier who fought in the 1st World War.

He survived to the last day, but was not to see the peace as he was killed in France just as the war ended, 93 years ago.

On Remembrance Day, let us remember him, and 19 other Douglas comrades who all gave their lives serving in The Cameronians, and the countless others serving on land, at sea and in the air.

I have today added the Cameronian Roll of Honour to the Douglas Archives.

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?
