Thank you for your reply Mary.  Unfortunately I am receiving the message that I cannot respond there.  This might be because my Rootsweb membership has elapsed.  I think I am not supposed to add my email address here so am not sure how I can contact you directly!

Certainly I have information about Selkirks in Gatehouse from John Selkrig who married Jean Affleck in Girthon 1723 and James married Janet Carson Girthon 1726 and all the generations up to the grandchildren of John Charles Selkirk and Jannet Moffat who kept the Bay Horse until about 1834.  John's son Charles was a tanner in partnership with Samuel Menzies.  I also have information about the Gale which sailed to America in 1775 with James Selkirk on board and members of the Henry family who I think were to the Herons.  I'll need to look that up.

Hello Callywoods,

Having recently completed a family history on the Selkirks of Gatehouse of Fleet, I was interested to hear that you are writing a history of the town.  Would love to be in touch.

Regards,
Jennykay
