Do you have more info on the ancestry of the Buchan line before Peter Buchan, married to Christian Bruce, or do you know were I can find some help?

Great!

Robert and Helens son Hector, was my grandfather on my mothers side. I grew up with stories about his siblings and their life after the left Scotland and moved to USA.

I know my mother has a lot of info about the siblings. I will contact her and post more info when I get it.

..and now I have posted enough here to be able to write, and answer, private messages :)

I am new to rootschat and found this page throug a google-search on Robert Bruce Buchan and Helen Reid.  :)

I am a direct relative to the couple (great grandchild) and have info about their children and so on.

But I was searching for some info the other way. Robert Bruce Buchans parants and the gererations above them. Any ideas where I should look?
