Orkney / Re: Hossack family
« on: Sunday 26 June 16 19:18 BST (UK)  »
To John Peace,
Thank you for replying and got the information.  I do have most of it with the exception of a few details which I can now add to the family tree.  It is really fascinating to put their story together.
Thanks again for your help,  Patricia Baxter

Gale Macleod, Yes, you are right.  Elizabeth Baxter nee Hossack married to Thomas Baxter was my great grandmother.  They had 15 children and I have managed to collect some information on each of them if you are interested.  Their eldest son Campbell Hossack Baxter was my grandfather.
Have been researching the Hossack family for quite a while now and it gets more and more interesting.  There are now three GG/Grandaughters found of Sutherland and Barbara Hossack;
Anne Menzies, Vicki Hossack and myself and we are in contact with each other.
Do you have links to the Hossack family?  I would be interested to share with you, Patricia.

Through researching family history have found I am distantly related to Buckham Hugh Hossack and I would be interested to find if anyone knows of or has any family connection to him.  As far as I can tell there is no one at the present time on Orkney with the name of Hossack which now appears unfortunately to have died out, although I could be wrong.
A son of Barbara and Sutherland Hossack who lived on Stronsay, I believe, emigrated to Canada - (possibly Halifax) around the beginning of 1900's.  Any information would be gratefully received.
