Caithness / Re: Brock - Thurso to Buffalo, NY!
« on: Friday 08 September 06 11:49 BST (UK)  »
Thanks to this list I have established that my ancestor John Brock, born about 1788 in Caithness and migrated to Great Yarmouth, gave the middle name "Dunnett" to a number of his children. His wife's name was Nichols (married 1808 in Yarmouth), so the Dunnett name could have come from the father's side. The couple are also thought to have lived in Dalkeith in 1811.

If anyone knows of a Brock-Dunnett connection in Caithness, that might be helpful.

James
