Hello, Thank you for the personal reply but I have discovered that I can't reply to you in the same way until I have put 3 posts on the site. The post that I put on to you was my first!
Anyway, yes we are definitely related and I have been working on the wannan family tree for several years now.
As regards Alexander Wannan 1774- 1826 who was married to Janet McIntosh 1772-1857, I have found no Alexander Wannan born in 1774 but 2 born in 1772. One being the son of John Wannan and Jean Brown and the other being the son of Alexander Wannan and Margaret Kennedy.
I have always found it hard to decide whose son he might be between the two, then again he might be born to entirely different parents and his birth not registered at all. Therefore I have not entered any parents at all on my tree for him although as his eldest son was John 1800-1872 it seems more likely that his parents were John Wannan and Jean Brown. I would really like to have more proof than just his eldest sons name!
I have so much more info on the family tree for you so please keep in touch, regards, mumsdaughter.
