George Merritt was actually born in Arbroath in Scotland. It seems a long time since anyone has looked at this thread but I am keen to pick up with anyone with connections to him as he is something of an undiscovered influence on American golf and I am writing an article on him. (AGCFS, my username, is an acronym for the website Antique Golf Clubs from Scotland).

Hi,
My great Aunt was Williamina (various spellings) wife of George Merritt and I have a some information on my Ancestry tree. You are Right about being born in Arbroath but his family were from Hampshire. his father was in the Coastguard/ customs and were moved to Scotland. Let me know what information you are looking for and I will see if I can help. (*)
