Henderson & Douglas Family Heirloom

Henderson & Douglas Family Heirloom

This Henderson–Douglas family china cabinet has long been said to have come across the sea by boat. While I’ve never been certain of the story, it remains possible, especially after reading accounts in the Douglas Archives. Whether legend or fact, it stands as a treasured heirloom linking our family to its past.

It's certainly a very nice solid oak cabinet!

Best regards

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?
