i was in touch with Deemas by E Mail and she sent me loads of personal history about relatives I didnt know i had. Memories from her mother. I believe that Deemas  was quite close to the fires in Australia, she sent me some amazing photos of them and said she was off to trace the other side of the tree. I havent heard from her since.

Fascinating. We seem to have tapped into a rich vein of knowledge! how did your interest in the brewers begin and do you have connections to the families involved?

Wow I'm more amazed every time I visit this site. To see pictures makes it all so much more real. In my family tree there are george john james william and robert. No mention of a girl who is clearly on the right of the picture. I guess girls weren't important enough to mention.

I have that connection for you on this family tree. It's complex and i dont have the benefit of a class -- i'm impressed.
i will type out the tree and send it to you but can tell you this much.Your grandmother jane younger born 1879 was daughter of william younger born 1848 . He was son of Robert Younger born 1802(?) this Robert's oldest brother was George Younger born 1790 he married jane hunter 1816, their oldest son james born1818 married janet mcewan 1850 and their oldest son was George Younger born 1851  . This george somehow became Viscount Leckie.

My E mail is (*)  . My father was also James knox Russell and he had three daughters. I do remember being a bridesmaid to a relative up in Inverurie when I was about  6yrs old. I remember your name now - I see where your user name comes from. What a small world!

I just stumbled upon this thread last night and couldn't believe my eyes. My grandmother was also Jane Younger born 1879 whose father was william younger born 1848. I never knew the relatives on this side of the family , we must be cousins!
jane had 4 children. Jane, Margaret , Violet  and James. I am the youngest daughter of james (and my middle name is younger). You must be the child of one of the daughters. I have a family tree here of the Youngers back to Thomas Younger of Craigton in 1598. Not much information on it though just names and some dates.
