A collection of historical and genalogical records
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?

One of the problems of using Ancestry is that it is, or was, very difficult to make corrections, thus anyone realising that they had made a mistake left it uncorrected.
This is not to say that the Douglas Archives is error free, but they can be corrected!
It is best to use online genealogy sites as the basis for future research
