Hi,  We do have Donald Blue (1767-1841) husband of Margaret Brown as a common ancestor.
Your John Blue (1793) is the first born of Donald and Margaret.  The third born, Dugald, (1797) is our ggg grandfather.  There were eight.  We have not gone back any farther than Donald and Margaret.
Dugald (1797) husband of Mary Bell was the father of our John Blue (1927) husband of Margaret Ferguson.
This John Blue with his wife and probably 3 sons moved from Kilmun to the Limerick area of Ireland.  His oldest son Dugald (1852) is our g grandfather or Grandfather in Hilary Blue's case.

Hi Joyce!  I have a Christiana Blue Christened March 23, 1795 who is the sister of my g.g. grandfather John Blue.  Their father and mother were Donald Blue and Margaret Brown.  My John Blue moved to Ireland.  I am guessing this is your Christiana.  Merry

I am so excited!!  I am Gerry's sister Merry and written down by family members is that John Blue was a steam ship master (listed on Dugald's marriage registry in Limerick) and he (John) had 7 sons, no mention of daughters.  They were reported to have left Scotland for all parts of the world.  There was an Archibald for sure as he is listed on the marriage registry as witness.  The birthdate I have for Dugald is May 24, 1852.  Thanks for all of your time.  Merry - California
