Banffshire / Re: Wood and Woodman - Forglen

Hi, Fransmoi

Yes, I've seen the Strichen Woodmans on IGI and wondered about them. They may even be the original bunch. Mine emanate from Turriff and some ended up in Forglen, some in Auchterless (that we know of!) My own direct line developed in Rathven. Apparently the family dropped the "man" about 1800 or possibly slightly earlier.

I'd certainly be very interested in information you can share -

Hi, Alex

Many thanks for your reply. I'm afraid I'm in the throes of trying to sort the Woods from the trees, as you so accurately put it!

Any leads you can give me would be very gratefully received.

Hi, Kevin

After recent discoveries and information I am wondering whether your John and Margaret may be part of my family as well.  :)

"My" John would have had definite Auchterless connections, as well as Turriff. Do you have the names of their children or John's parents?

I'm more than happy to share any info I have  :)

Many thanks -
