Scotland / Re: Is "Meek" a nickname?
« on: Wednesday 02 December 15 16:19 GMT (UK) »<snip>I'm related to that Meek line. (I'm fairly closely DNA related to Russell Meek, who has a strong paper trail to the Fortissat Meeks.) I'm stuck on William Meek (b 1795 or 6; probably from Lanarkshire, east of Glasgow), so I can't (yet) trace back to find my connection with Russell's tree.
George Meek of Campfield was a surgeon & founder of the Falkirk Bank, he and his sisters were off the Meek's of Fortissat, Shotts. <snip>
Always interested in Fortissat Meek information.
