Hi Everybody
I have now opened a website which contains a family tree of M(a)cphersons from Perth, Scotland who then mostly migrated to England, Liverpool being one of the most popular areas.
They had a shipyard in Perth and the reason for moving was the advent of the new metal ships. They closed the Perth shipyard,as wooden boats no longer provided much needed employment, then moved to the Liverpool dock area where they worked as Shipwrights.
I am particularly intertested to see if anyone can connect to Peter McLean McPherson who was born in Perth. He seems to have vanished from all records, possibly emigrated to the USA. His wife was Eleanor King.
If anyone has a genuine interest I would be glad to hear from them.
The website link is
