Hi Andy

Welcome to rootschat looking from your family names
I probably will not have any family connection my nearest
is Watt from Dumfrieshire.

Good hunting
The Lanarkshire board might be of interest to you.

HI
Thanks for the welcome. Just been in the chatroom, what a friendly lot.
Not sure if this is the right place to post... or whether I should post details of my family... well if moderators moderate, then please feel free to do your worst, lol.

Grandparents
Paternal Andrew Downie (dob 12th March 1914 (I think,to confirm)
                                          Motherwell)
              Agnes Wright      (dob 13th March 1914-ish)

Maternal John Forsyth (dob Bellshill)
               Sarah Connor (dob Bellshill)

As you can see details have to be confirmed.
Downie - Lanarkshire/Fife
Wright - Lanarkshire
Forsyth - Lanarkshire
Connor - Lanarkshire

Andy

You can post here, common room etc.

If the relatives are from Scotland, then its probably better to
post on the Scotland board or whichever the county the came
from in Scotland.

Saying what you know to what you would like to know
