Hi, Penninah.

I, too, am chasing this line.  My hubby is  Jacob and Mary's great great great great grandson.  I have information on their deaths (and descendants), but little else.  I am willing to share what I have if you would like it.

Best wishes,

I am working on a great number of the Scottish Travelling families - my late wife was a KELBIE and we started with her tree. The Travellers, however, tended to inter-marry, come out of the family and then marry back into the family a couple of generations later.

Hi Bill.

I stumbled across your reference to the KELBIE family above today and I would like to thank you for the mention of 'travelling families'.  That could explain a great deal as to why I'm having so much initial trouble locating my KELBIE line.

My GGrandmother was Maggie Findlay KELBIE (m. George Matthew McFARLANE, 25 Jun 1919)
Her parents were Francis KELBIE & Mary Ellen FINDLAY (m. 19 Mar 1894)
His parents: Michael KELBIE & Mary Ann DRUMMOND who had children in the 1860s in Elgin, Moray, Scotland.

The family was sighted in Perthshire and ended up in Dundee.

I know this is extremely brief info, and I do have more, but I thought I'd throw out this to see if it rings any bells.

Any help is greatly appreciated as although I'm just starting out on this line, it is proving a little challenging.

Best wishes,
Nutty
