Title: McKechnie surname in Bonhill and Kilmaronock parishes
Post by: mckechnie on Sunday 26 June 05 08:45 BST (UK)

The surname McKechnie has been known in this part of the county since the 17th century, as well as in neighbouring parishes in Stirlingshire and in Glasgow. I would be interested in hearing from anyone doing research into this name in this area.

I recalled seeing the surname here and thought it might be of interest to you!

I have several generations of McKechnies ( Alexander, William, Grace, Mary ...) that resided on North Street in Alexandria between 1800 - 1900.

Hi there

I have my family - all McKechnie - residing between Cardross and Renton all early to mid 1800's.

Christian names Hugh, Agnes, Donald, John and some more.

Any connection?
