Do you have any info on your family background/ would be interesting to see if there is a connection.
Keep in touch.

Hi there, and thanks for the reply.  I'll check with my parents to see what family information we have and how far back it goes, and also whether they know of any of the names you've mentioned.  The Canadian connection is interesting - when my father was on holiday in New Zealand a couple of years ago, he met someone who swore that he was the spitting image of a friend of theirs who lived in Canada.  My father gave his details to them just in case, but never heard anything.  He also checked with his family and a number of them were certain that some of their close relatives had migrated from Scotland to live in Canada.
