Hi there

I am linked to the Redfords and Reids in this area and have a friend linked to the Mackays.  I think my Redfords married one of your Pirie's way back so we are probably very very very very distantly related!!

We have some details of Slater and Mair ancestors, from the 1850s (Cullen), and 1880s (Portnockie).  What is the best way of passing it on?  We are new to RootsChat.

Hi
We also have Anne Wood and Henry Lea who were married in Cullen in 1848 in our tree.  Our connection is through their son Alexander.  Anne Wood was the daughter of James Wood (tee name "Deacon") and Helen Rannie.   Would love to hear from anyone with a connection to exchange information.
